I hope it's not inappropriate to cross-post this. I thought it somewhat relevant to both groups.
I'm interested in submitting a 'Beginner's Debian Installation Guide' of some sort. I have about 80% of the framework of one completed, but am concerned about the lack of fat32 support. As is stands, if someone has a new computer formatted in fat32, they would have to format a fat16 partition to download the packages into. the vfat module in the installation process won't allow a fat32 partition to be mounted and the base-install doesn't have full ppp support for dialup. I'm afraid I'm no programmer, I'm a user trying to learn as much as I can and help out, if possible. I don't know how difficult it would be to make the installation vfat module fat32 compliant. I would, however, like to submit a document for review. Should I submit one based on the current situation, or could the module be 'patched'? I would be very appreciative to hear any opinion on this, and how such a document might be received. TIA for your consideration :) Matt Thompson [EMAIL PROTECTED] MZI, Inc. v-206.430.3726 707 S.
