Debian potato 2.2r7 or whatever is not going on to a network, just on to an old computer salvaged out of a thrift store, and it uses quite a bit less disk space than other more current versions of Debian, and xfree86 will work and surf the internet on 32 megabytes of ram. I am still trying to find a Debian potato 2.2 server other than deb http://archive.debian.org/ that I can download potato 2.2 packages from ? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
