yes. 

1) if you don't intend to deploy it with the high-availability option,
then you can just go ahead and install/configure the packages. the
install script assumes RH, so you might have to do some things by hand.

or

2) if you want to use HA, then you can dig up the 'hidden' patch
(http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/) for debian, if it's needed.
sometimes kernel patches are generic and apply across distributions.

when apply the netpass kernel patch to the redirectors, you can either
try the RH patch we have or do it by hand. it's just a one-line change
in the kernel source. examine the patch for details. if you get stuck,
send a message to the list.
