Fix "preparing" part for non-Linux ports.
Update USB stick documentation to reflect isohybird mini.iso files, as generated by debian-installer >= 20100913. This is very suboptimal, the USB stuff is a dreadful mess and needs a complete rewrite, but hopefully isohybrid full CD images will obsolte it later.
Fix hardware part for non-Linux ports. Now needs fine-tune from BSD people.
Fix port URL for non-Linux ports.
* Restrict "Board Devices" accessibility section to Linux.
* Add the list of architectures supported by the kFreeBSD port.
* Add a "What is Debian GNU/kFreeBSD" section.
* Rephrase Hurd-specific paragraph explaining that Debian GNU/Hurd is not
Linux.
* Replace Linuxish bits with per-port entities in preface.
* Add non-Linux infrastructure to the build system. * Add kFreeBSD infrastructure.
* Document booting from DOS (Closes: Bug#518808).

Update kernel version to 2.6.32
Update for switch of G-I from DirectFB to X.Org Drop description of boot parameters related to directfb. Also drop section on known issues as they no longer apply.
Disabling framebuffer on x86 now also requires passing vga=normal With thanks to Samuel Thibault.
partman now asks a slightly different (and less scary) confirmation question if it doesn't appear that any data is being overwritten. Document the associated preseeding changes.
Remove spurious quoting in network-console documentation, pointed out by Jonathan Amery.
Document the use of grub-installer/grub2_instead_of_grub_legacy to switch back to GRUB Legacy for those who need it.
Using D-I: add subsection intruducing supported partitioning options It includes a list of supported file systems which is generally useful, but also more important now that reiserfs support is optional.
Drop requirement for TFTP server support of 'tsize' option for PXE booting As of Lenny syslinux no longer requires that the TFTP server supports the 'tsize' option (see #570273). With thanks to Ferenc Wagner.
Update information on setting up a TFTP server tftpd-hpa can be run using inetd, but also as an independent daemon. Mention that and remove some of the technical detail as it should be set up correctly by default when installing the package.
Use 'ip addr' instead of 'ifconfig' to get MAC address for RARP setup
Update and extend information on preseeding partman Based on a patch from Vincent McIntyre.
Update the appendix on chroot installs to not recommend mapping 127.0.0.1 to the hostname; use 127.0.1.1, the same as the installer itself does.
Reword section on installer's support of wireless. Be more specific about what is not supported (notably better enctyption than WEP), and link to firmware loading documentation. In particular avoid the "still under development", which has a typical end-user stigma of "can not possibly work".
Update for changes in localechooser 2.18 - Selecting a different country is now always possible at high priority. - Selection of a preferred locale if a combination of language and country was selected for which no locale exists. - Various other minor improvements.
Mention option to select UTC as time zone at medium/low priority

Mention more Kirkwood-based devices that are supported.
Document support for separate preseeding of language, country and locale
Update for change in locale selection in localechooser 2.17
Document new help functionality
Add link to www.kernel.org and remove www.kerneltraffic.org www.kernel.org is the official website for the kernel. www.kerneltraffic.org no longer has any content related to the kernel. Thanks to Alex Brotman and Philippe Batailler for reporting this.
x86 USB boot: mini.iso is not usable as ISO image for hd-media Make this more explicit. Apparently listing the images that can be used is not sufficient. Also add a link to section explaining how to get CD images.
x86 usb-boot: two improvements suggested by Timo Juhani Lindfors - hd-media and netboot use different names for kernel binary: the first uses 'vmlinuz', the second 'linux' - when repartitioning the stick, don't forget to set bootable flag
Debian now installs Recommends by default Document this and how to disable it using base-installer/install-recommends.
Use standard width for PO files When updating PO files, set them to a standard width of 79 characters (same as used for l10n-sync for D-I master PO files).
Disable the variant for the alpha architecture for official builds alpha is being dropped as a release architecture for Squeeze.
