could you tell me more bout the error messages ?
I vote for a grafical bootprocess. For the most users the 
linuxbootprocess looks
ugly. For a devoloper its interessting to know whats going on. The 
default
should be grafical, with an option, text-boot.

loading the GPL page was just a example, it can be also HOWTO, FAQs

good point, i vote for a clean CD without any non-free software. We 
should
discuss if usefull to allow the user to install nonfree. It should be 
also
ducumentated. Whome takes care about it ?

sudo su -

The first official include this feature, for now its easier to find some
problems.

cvs and a newer version in my homedir.
There is a general problem, i have to keep kalyxo and cvs uptodate,
that means double work. Is there any possibility for a easy sync ?
Or i should put all things to cvs and we point on the webpage to there ?
Who takes care about it ?  Who take care about the webpages ?

yap, need day 1/2 time for it. But still busy with repackaging woody 
debs.
If somebody could help packaging it would be fine.

Another point is, converting ncurses based dialogs with kdialog or 
xdialog.
And thanks for your report :) Looks like i missed some mails, my 
mailserver
got in trouble, someone just removed the MX, please resent if you miss
