So then if I want to run Orca from source, I might as well aptitude remove gnome-accessibility, since the Gnome install guide from source has one checkout AT-SPI, and a few other packages along with Orca, or just aptitude remove those packages? Also, someone stated that doing apt-get install lilo would remove Grub. It did not. I installed Lilo, configured it, and ran grub - it was still there. So I did a aptitude purge grub. If I remember properly, the MBR is installed on /dev/hda. Does this mean that the boot line in /etc/lilo.conf should be /dev/hda and root = should be /dev/hda1? Some of the wording in liloconfig was a little...misleading. I'm used to the Slackware liloconfig. Also, Debian recommends using kernel-package for building custom kernels; what are your thoughts on this? Sounds like it would make it more convenient but I am a traditional kernel building guy.
