There's all kinds of stuff on the ftp server that isn't mentioned anywhere. I'll probably skim the news archive after this. I have an Indy. I run Linux on my pc, and am very interested in this port. What is the status of the xserver? What are the current goals of the port? How long do you expect before the dual boot is running? I would be willing to run it and participate as a beta tester and have subscribed to this list. If you could post an installation walkthrough or something updated for the latest changes, that would be great. Thanks, Jeremy Welling UofMich Engr Student
