Here is the empty 1 GB debian.img.ext2 file. I had to attach it with a fake .zip ending because itT doesn't recognize tar.bz2 files (yet). You can either rename it (remove the .zip) or just uncompress it the way it is. tar doesn't care about file extensions.
Untar it, mount it (using the chroot script if you want -- just chroot and then exit) and then put whatever you want into it:
The
Basic Debian Sid Rootfs
(don't forget to install and then configure locales) ... note that this is also a .tar.bz2 file, I mis-named it.
Johnx's bootable Debian rootfs
. Remember to chroot without the script and do "apt-get remove --purge mpd" before doing anything else.
Be the first to get
the Fedora ARM port
up and running on the tablet. I couldn't get this rootfs' Yum to work for me, so I couldn't install anything, but I haven't used RedHat for years...
The
Mojo Ubuntu "Grumpy" distro
. I guess you would make a debootstrap of Ubuntu in Debian with a procedure
like this
using the script from
this debootstrap
.
PM someone running
the new Diablo
OS2007 and see if they'll give you a copy of their rootfs.
