- After breaking my head on Fedora, I decided to try something else, so I am trying debian now.

9 - 10 July
- Got the Debian working BKODebian
- Just one small issue is that, I have to use squashfs image instead of iso image.
- The problem in using iso image is that, once initrd job is (almost) over, it runs
/bin/run-init
which is binary executable,- It tries to remove initramfs filesystem.
- As I am mounting ISO inside initramfs, it also tries to delete this iso, and fails. with this failue the init scripts panics and stop the boot process.
11 - 12 July
- Could not work much because of Internet connectivity problem.
