I have already had a volunteer for this, but I am
inclined at least initially to divert you to the
Demudi guys who have a great project also.  I have
used it, and it's really nice.

In any case, the long term plan is to eventually offer
a "urpmi" version (using Mandrake's 'apt-get' style
package manager "urpmi", very slick but too new to me
to have been used this time around).   

In this case, "urpmi turnkeylinuxaudio" would grab
everything one package at a time and install depends
as necessary.  Alternatively, any single package could
be downloaded with "urpmi <package_name>", very much
like the apt-rpm PlanetCCRMA package, which is another
really impressive option out there for users.

Can someone else answer this question for Ron?  I am
not a hardware expert by any stretch.
