[support] Broken sources for Homeguy on site

Hi,
I'm not sure exactly where this should goto, however the websites all say that this is the best place to report.
I have been building an haiku interface using the files as they are on the websites, and the homeguy iso.
There are two bugs in the iso there.
Firstly the image doesn't have a .disk directory. Subsequently when casper executes the script that invokes apt-cdrom -m add, it sits there silently waiting for someone to enter a "disk name". Of course because at this point in the boot there is no stdout, noone sees this, and you just sit there assuming that your live cd is broken (until you accidentally munge the keyboard hitting enter at some point as i did).
Secondly, the file conf-setup/01-mip6.sh is incorrect.
Where it is checking to see if [ $CUR_PREF == 1 ], this is a string comparison, which may work in bash, but certainly won't in this script - subsequently, you get two interface definitions, and none of the template in the resulting config file.
This can be corrected by doing a straight substitution s/==/-eq/
I have included the appropriate fix for the .disk function
(The info file is just a generic string which is inserted in sources.list, the uuid is generated by uuidgen)
Regards
Stuart Harland
