Do i still have to download the development tools & libraries and kernel
source separately?
Hope NOT.
Unfortunately, you still need to apt-get the kernel source,
kdebase-dev and x-window-system-dev. Because we're only providing a
single ISO, the rest of the packages that won't fit will be placed in
a repository. But we did manage to include build-essential,
kernel-package, debhelper etal. in the CD. All you need to do if you
need those would be to "apt-cdrom add" the CD and use Synaptic or
aptitude to install those files.
Just a question/suggestion sir, Is it possible to for you make an
optional second disk available for download? The optional second disk
will contain packages that are nice to have around but won't fit into
the distribution CD. Like development tools, kernel source, httpd,
mySQL, PHP, additional eye cadies and tools and the likes.
That way even if BL will be deployed in an internet-deprived area,
expanding/customizing the BL install will not be much of a PITA.
Thanks
