Okay, we should make debian packages, that's right. But the principle
is the same: provide everything to build automatically Gnoppix from
Woody. And that « everything » must be made public.
BTW how is the booting process customized? How to boot from a ramdisk,
how to detect hardware, and so on? IMHO that requires documentation, it
is not self-explaining. Or maybe there are Knoppix docs that we could
link to?
