Hi Robert,

Hi!

I rolled a new netboot image, and corrected a number of issues in the
archive.
Your procedure is successful!
I got a working system out of the box with the login prompt in ttyx.

I did the post-install of gnewsense-pkgsel-desktop

Then, the Xserver crashed, so that I postinstalled the
xserver-xorg-video-siliconmotion_2.2.8-lemote.r03_mipsel.deb (see
http://dev.lemote.com/drupal/node/49) and copied a xorg.conf from another
working yeeloong installation.

X should work with stock packages if you set it to use fbdev:

 Section "Device"
Identifier "Configured Video Device" Driver "fbdev"
        Option          "UseFBDev"              "true"
 EndSection

this is much less hassle.  I'll see what I can do to automate it.

I've at last install the base system finally, although it comes a little late, and now installing the desktop. Shall we try to just tar the final system to a gnewsense.xxx.tgz for people to download, which is just as the Loongson BBS's someone did ?
