When installing the "easy debian without the apps", do you need to install first the "debian chroot app" from the repository first? I tried the "without apps" without installing "debian chroot app" and I could not get the image file to work - it always ended with an error concerning permissions (could not set the permissions to 661). Also, the files in the "insmod" commands in /lib/modules could not be found (they aren't there). So I'm more than a bit confused. I previously tried installing the whole turbo thing from the repository and creating all the apps (onto my internal memory mmc2) but this did not work (nothing would ever run). I have my N810 set up to boot from an 8GB SDHC external card. I would like to get at least the minimal system working so I could try to install R.
