I placed my tree at:

http://www.candelatech.com/oss/gar2.tar.gz

The 'lanforge' related stuff is my own, and is proprietary, so you will
probably want to comment it out of the package listing.  If you find
yourself missing any files you think should be there, let me know:  I
may have dependencies I'm not aware of in my local file system.

Also, this builds in a debian chroot (on my FC2 machine).  I believe it's mostly
standard, but I did `chmod a+s /sbin/mknod` so that I can run mknod as non-root user.

I'd like to see any/all of this make it into the official lnx-bbc tree, so let
me know if I can be of further service in that area.

Thanks,
Ben
