[maemo-users] Easy Debian

[From: Qole]

Sean,

Sorry I didn't respond earlier. I was on vacation, and I don't watch the
mailing lists very closely (I watch the talk.maemo.org forums more closely).

You can put the Easy Debian image file (the one that has a file name that
ends in .img.ext2) anywhere you want. Edit the IMGFILE line of your
/home/user/.chroot file to point to the image file's location.

For example, if you put your image file into the MyDocs folder in your
tablet's home directory, edit the .chroot file to say:

IMGFILE=/home/user/MyDocs/debian-squeeze.img.ext2
