[Voyage-linux] RO/RW

[Giorgio Ducci]

Hello,

this topic give to me the opportunity to ask one thing to Punky and other 
people as well: could I "try" to write a sort of "HOWTO"  if you want to 
install this or that package? As I went through the same problem adding 
some packages now I know how to do and because I am not a developer I will 
not (probably) skip any step.....well I hope so ;-)
Anyway, that How would be submitted to Punky for revision and approval and 
integrated in the README file.
Let me know

cheers
