Debian kFreebBSD installer

I was able to install Debian kFreeBSD using the ported Debian installer.

I used the installer from:
[1] http://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/kfreebsd-amd64/
[2] http://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/kfreebsd-i386/

I did that under VMWare. Also the ISO is only 12MB, so it is a net-install. In the end I had a working Gnome installation out of the box.
I am only missing now the Java 1.6. Only Java 1.5 is now available.

Debian kFreeBSD will make Debian more independent OS.
It will increase the package quality as it will force some package maintainers and developers to remove kernel dependent code, and we all agree that kernel dependent code is definitely not a good practice.
In some cases the multi-core support in Freebsd might suit your needs better and you will still be using Debian.
