Installing

Using r4.

Instead of following the installation instructions, I just made a single ext3 partition, with a /boot directory containing the usual files needed for Qi to boot.

The time and date are off. I opened a terminal and did "dpkg-reconfigure tzdata". Then set the UTC time with "date -u -s".
