Hi!

Please include pwgen:

Description: Automatic Password generation
 pwgen generates random, meaningless but pronounceable passwords.
 These passwords contain either only lowercase letters, or upper
 and lower case mixed, or digits thrown in.
 Uppercase letters and digits are placed in a way that eases
 remembering their position when memorizing only the word.

It needs less than 20KB, only has libc6 as dependency and is very
valuable for setting useful passwords when installing a new machine.

Regards,
Thomas Arendsen Hein

Subject: [finnix] Replace ddrescue with gddrescue?
Message-ID: <1268888598.16908.381.camel@222r10st>

Hi,

I would like to suggest replacing the package apt://ddrescue with
apt://gddrescue , as the latter one, a GNU project, has similar
features, but is more advanced.

Apart from that, kudos for such a great distribution... it was actually
the only one I could get to work on one of my older machines (~1997).
