Re: Comedi and Debian Etch...

Hello,

I did'nt known that a debian comedi package is available for debian
etch, and in order to replicate a rtai+comedi system in a school lab,
I recently build my own packages (with rtai/comedi (un)load init
scripts). If somebody is interested I can publish them. It provide a
comedi+rtai complete system in two command lines and one reboot. It's
composed by 3 packages : the patched 2.6.19 kernel, the rtai API, and
the comedi/comedilib modules + API.

I will (in some month, not before ;-) also write an howto, because
that kind of packages are really easy to build, and I ever done a part
of the work in my (un)install scripts.
