Burning MP3s to CD

mp3burn -o '-swab'  *mp3 

mp3burn fails to turn -swab on (it's supposed to be automatic) so you end up with a CD of static otherwise.

No PPPoE support

no pppoesupport means no/dev/ppp (symlink to /dev/.static/dev/ppp)

Building 64-bit kernel for 32-bit userspace

see DebianAMD64Faq for one possibility:

make-kpkg --rootcmd fakeroot --cross-compile - --arch=amd64 --initrd kernel_image (--config menuconfig)

"fakeroot make-kpkg --arch amd64 --revision=8:ksm.2 --initrd kernel_image" seemed to fail badly on 32-bit box.

I actually built it on my 64-bit box (with "CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION=y" set) and the "dpkg --force-architecture" to install it.
