My congratulations for fanthom; now we can promote the partitioning of the harddisk in three: sda1 for "other", sda2 for Porteus and sda3 for swap. Imagine starting millions of PC's in the whole with the Porteus-globus on screen! And additionally, we can take Porteus in USB around the world.
I am glad to hear you could write an installer as described in one of my last posts. Once I installed Suse and they did in fact compact your hda made a new logic partition for linux and installed grub as boot manager.
To fill the gap of the 32-bits edition, an "Updater" would be very handy: You throw the newer CD version in the cdrom and press "Update"; the machine tests what the old porteus.sgn says and acts substituting the boot and porteus/base accordingly. With adequate messages, the user should learn the pros of the new version, and mention the incompatibilities eventually introduced.
Once more, with a firewall we would be playing the "other" game, not ours -think it over!-
Slackware doesn't need a firewall,why should we need one? Jay, you are missing your time...
Regards
PSC looks very good. All is in one place, now. Good job
