OK, this is my remove of my last build.

Overall I think the system looks pretty good. kde and gnome were both quick,
though X seemed to load slower. Samba and cups work great.  All apps I tried
appear to work.

Here are some sticking points:
Installer/Stone:
Still no support for non standard partitions: md, etc. devices in mount point
list.
gasgui crashes into bad console if /mnt/target not setup (need error check)
package install messages wrap off screen, shouldn't these be prettified?
insert disk 0 thing (fixed?)
kbd didnt install (due to some random listing error)

System:
isdn/hisanx depmod failed for kernel 2.4.25

intial mouse setup (no /dev/mouse) screws up x11 config first boot.

stone lilo setup: no config support for raid1 (not a big deal).

st.o not loaded by rockplug

some weird second usb storage scsi dev appeared (no device in it) with real
first one

scanner.o not loaded by rockplug

netmasking not clear for rocknet

printer system selection scripts were missing

we have no faxing package

gnome and kde do not share app lists

gnome has no default panel.
