The entry in /etc/network/interfaces. I use /30 as my home network is 192.168.0.0/24. I have a local nameserver.

Installing Debian
I partitioned by hand because of a problem with fdisk. Changing the type of a partition seems to block with the fdisk from Om 2007.
Disk /dev/mmcblk0: 2032 MB, 2032664576 bytes 4 heads, 16 sectors/track, 62032 cylinders Units = cylinders of 64 * 512 = 32768 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/mmcblk0p1 1 57984 1855480 83 Linux /dev/mmcblk0p2 57985 62032 129536 82 Linux swap
Well, install.sh - v3.0, from wiki.debian.org fails.

Make a tar of /mnt/debian so that I don't have to go through all this agian.
Configuring Debian
Now I have debian on my SD card but the touchscreen doesn't work.
http://neil.brown.name/blog/20090212205404 says that it might just be a calibration problem.
apt-get install libts-bin
TSLIB_TSDEVICE=/dev/input/touchscreen0 DISPLAY=:0 /usr/bin/ts_calibrate
xres = 480, yres = 640
I can see the cross-hairs but clicking does nothing. Ok, you need to stop the Xserver before calibrating.
# /etc/init.d/nodm stop TSLIB_TSDEVICE=/dev/input/touchscreen0 DISPLAY=:0 /usr/bin/ts_calibrate xres = 480, yres = 640 Took 15 samples... Top left : X = 858 Y = 201 Took 2 samples... Top right : X = 854 Y = 840 Took 9 samples... Bot right : X = 160 Y = 840 Took 11 samples... Bot left : X = 162 Y = 196 Took 18 samples...

Let's read http://www.mail-archive.com/smartphones-userland@linuxtogo.org/msg01205.html which suggests removing xserver-xorg-input-synaptics. Now Xorg.0.log says
(II) config/hal: Adding input device s3c2410 TouchScreen (**) s3c2410 TouchScreen: always reports core events (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "s3c2410 TouchScreen" (type: TOUCHSCREEN)
and tapping the screen switches it on but still no luck in doing any actions. Let's restore /etc/pointercal
# echo 557 38667 -4654632 -51172 121 46965312 65536 > /etc/pointercal # /etc/init.d/nodm restart
now I have a screen that works. It broke again. Reading http://lists.openmoko.org/nabble.html#nabble-td677811
