Hi Ted!
I don't care about having lot of stuff pre-installed, SDCARD space is large 
enough. Maybe background process should be minimized but I doubt it's a problem.

Still, that doesn't explain why my card don't boot. If I check your guide, you 
use the same partition model as I do, as well as the same (mr/kernel/initrd). I 
was thinking my kernel/initrd had to be changed but I guess not.

I guess the TS eabi package already have modules and other things pre-installed 
too, so what's missing in my setup to boot? Your linuxrc-sdroot-lenny-install 
seems specialized because it's a debootstrap, not becuase it's lenny.

I managed to re-compile the kernel with EABI support, but I don't even know how 
to send it to partition2 of the card, and if the ts-provided kernel support 
eabi it's no use.

Any help?
