Great!

test with parted on the cd to do the hfs resize.

You will need the kernel, unless you compile it your self. It's benh kernel 
catched with bitkeeper.

You can probably get it on the cd, but dpkg-repack is not installed. or i can 
put it ont the ftp. If you use mine, you will need:
- - initrd-tools
- - genext2fs, because the kernel has not the cramfs patch for initrd.
- - to correct /etc/mkinitrd/mkinitrd.conf like that:
MKIMAGE='genext2fs -b 8192 -d %s %s > /dev/null'

I don't know. But if you need some utils for the fans  i will add them on the 
cd.
