Hi!
I rolled a new netboot image, and corrected a number of issues in the archive.
What we have now:
- tasksel didn't work (package selection wasn't automatically installed).
It's quite messy to work with tasksel anyway, so I got rid of it, and
now use preseeding for package selection instead.
- wireless was mistakenly disabled by deblob, fixed now (thanks to DJB
Clark for pointing it out).
- renamed distroname (lenny -> mipsel-l)
- fixed a few package conflicts.
Note: I experienced stability problems that sometimes brought Linux down when
performing a full (+desktop) install. Therefore the desktop components are
not enabled by default, you have to install them manually afterwards:
apt-get install gnewsense-pkgsel-desktop
Note2: for those who already installed with an older version, the current URIs
for sources.list are:
deb http://archive.gnewsense.org/gnewsense-mipsel-l/pruned-upstream mipsel-l
main
deb http://archive.gnewsense.org/gnewsense-mipsel-l/pruned-upstream-security
mipsel-l main
deb http://archive.gnewsense.org/gnewsense-mipsel-l/overlay mipsel-l main
