Hello list,
There is a new version of Sonar now based off of Debian-Wheezy and also Debian-Sid. I only made the 32 bit version but they are both using a pae kernel so it will notice ore than 4 GB. Of ram. Here is a link to the download. Also below are instructions for installing the sonar based Debian the install is accessible but some of the fields don't read what you are filling in or what you are saying yes or no to. I will have these instructions on the sonar-project.org website at some point today. http://sourceforge.net/projects/sonargnulinux/files/
Before you start the install you will want to start the orca preferences and choose your keyboard layout.
Now press the windows key and type in the word live. This will bring up the installer.
Then it says that the installer itself will use english and you choose yes or no. After you tab to yes then press the spacebar.
Next you will choose extra locals to be installed. If you just want 1 language installed you can just press tab to next and press the spacebar.
After this you will choose the default local for the installation. Arrow through the choices and then tab to next and press the spacebar.
Now you will configure the keyboard configuaration. If you are using a u.s. Keyboard you can press tab to next and then press the spacebar.
Next is setting up the keyboard layout. The default is u.s. Again if you are using a u.s. Keyboard you can press tab and then the spacebar. During this point of the installer you will have the option to set up the kill x by pressing control, Alt and backspace. You will see this option as you are tabbing through the menu. If you would like this option just press the spacebar to check the box.
