you _could_ try: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/ it's not debian specific, but, nonetheless gives good insight into building your own distro. good luck in your quest! i've always wanted a nice 'lite' version of debian.. the debian ''minimial install' disc seems to suit my purposes well. -jeff -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
