**Important:** Debian K8's gnumach will not boot in QEMU unless you use its `-isa` command line option.
-You'll have to mount your disk image, I use a program called lomount to do this. Then copy the new kernel onto the partition. You could also use mount instead of using lomount if you know the correct offset.
+Now run your image with floppy booting and finish the install (`./native-install` .. etc)

-I personally use lomount cause its easier.
+So far I haven't been able to get networking going, it seems as if gnumach is not finding the ethernet device, although I haven't really looked into it that far.
