Hi Erik,

that is great work you and Rod have been doing there.

As installing IPFire on an ARM box will always be a little bit harder than on a PC, we need to create good documentation for that.

The installation manual is generally nice, but for my opinion much too long. We could split that into several parts.

Part 1) Create a medium to install from: * Burn a CD (the most common way) * Prepare a USB key * Image flashing * Xen * PXE? It is working very well, but we did not declare it as stable, yet. Still searching for someone who is doing some testing on it.

Part 2) The installation part: * Booting from the media. * Formatting the harddisk etc.

This part is not important for people who flashed an image or use Xen.

Part 3) This part is important for everybody, because the final setup has to be done.

So after all, it's just three steps that can be splitted very well, what do you think? Who is willing to do the work?
