[LUG] fruits of my labours

 

OK, after a LONG, LONG time, I finally have something to show for all
this Emdebian stuff:

http://linux.codehelp.co.uk/emdebian/firstrun.jpg

yes, yes, there are no icons and the touchscreen library doesn't work so
the apps can't start (at least via the screen) but it's a start!

Stats:
Still too large at > 80Mb installed for a full GUI but that is still
100Mb smaller than a minimal Debian system without any GUI stuff.
Available only for ARM
Tested only on Balloon3 : http://balloonboard.org/index.html
Not installing cleanly at this stage - some fettling is required.

192 packages used.
