Lol Great site, love the boy racer analogy, you just have to admire sheer youthfull exuberance and ignorance. :) If you can not then there is something misconfigured in there and that is sad. :( dpkg-reconfigure self? ;) > > Oh - man,there we go again. > Distro-pissing contest time everybody!! Does it really have to be that way, when I go out for a ruby with friends we have Debian, Red Hat, Gentoo, Suse admins, we even sometimes have lusers but we make them sit on their own. ;) The posters original desire was for something in the Debian installer to auto-detect hardware the way Yast does. The Debian devs on the thread linked to were primarily concerned with the way Yast deals with configuration files. IMHO the Debian installer deals poorly with auto-detection of hardware and the creation of LVMs. I could be plain wrong on this, if I am I am happy to be enlightened. :) Please restore a little faith in my my fellow humanity and lets have a little open reasoned debate about issues, instead of retreating into the bunkers of fundamentalism.
