Changes:

* ON B67 based

auto-partitioning). Both, Wizard and FDisk types fully supported.

After installation, those who needs GNOME environment, just type:

just use "pkgadd -d" wrapper. it will auto-magically convert SVR4
package to the .deb(s) and install them on the fly. You can also use
"pkgrm" to remove them. pkginfo wrapper is also available.
