Heya....

Some of you might remember I mentioned I was working on a Debian EMC distro, RSI.  I've had this running for months with no problems, but asked for any other interest, and not a lot was expressed.

You guys still interested?  Everything's nicely packaged, so upgrading to the latest rtai/rtlinux or emc should be a breeze (you'll just need to make a new package, upload it to a web server, then tell your users to update), but I simply don't have the time to continue developing this.  Someone else will need to.

The install's only about ~270mb, it can be smaller, but this is with all the dev tools to compile EMC from cvs.  I planned to clean this up a lot but again, just haven't had time.

I'm willing to release this if someone else wants to keep this all up to date...  only thing that I haven't done is get the installer working.  At the moment its only basic - the cd's bootable, it'll automatically partition the hard drive, untar a tarball to the hard drive, reboot, then ask you to configure the network card & X windows (all with reasonably easy to use dialogs, although it certainly could be made a lot easier).

Any Debian guys out there interested?  Email me...
