     - Add exclude-udebs-powerpc list with packages already in the initrd,
       along the same lines as exclude-udebs-i386. Saves about 11 megabytes.

+# Do install stuff for arm, including making bootable CDs
+# Works with debian-installer
+#
+# $1 is the CD number
+# $2 is the temporary CD build dir
+#
+# According to Vince Sanders, most subarchitectures (with the notable
+# exception of real netwinders; note that 'netwinder' actually supports
+# other machines too) have CD-ROM drives, and can boot from them given a
+# kernel and an initrd. The bootloader is in NOR flash memory.
 
-# Nothing has to be done since the supported ARM computers are computers
-# without CDROM and so they don't need to be able to boot from CD ...
-#
-# The CDs may only be useful to provide the packages via the network.
-#
-# This file must however exist so that debian-cd doesn't complain about
-# lack of "bootable" support.
