Sorry if I've posted this already to this list, I don't keep -releng's
e-mails and it's not archived afaik.

Anyway, do we already (or is it possible to) use a single command-line
browser on all LiveCDs (for all architectures)? I.e. is lynx (or links2)
available everywhere?

From a documentation PoV this would be very interesting as we wouldn't have
to say "if you have this on your CD, run this, otherwise run that".
Consistency is a great value.

This doesn't mean that the other browser shouldn't be available.

Wkr,
      Sven Vermeulen

    They are making full use of all the possibilities of evading democracy that 
    the current Community Law provides.     <http://lwn.net/Articles/84009/>
