''sarge'' running with no hassle whatsoever (so far!) - seems quite str forward
once I decided to ditch ''woody'' -- the 250Gb HD and 1Gb Ethernet card both
identified by ''sarge'' so could partition all at once and download packages off
the Internet - impressed also by the GRUB doing the MBR edits for me. All in about an hour!
Now for the nitty gritty (smp kernel, making the display high resolution and doing some work!)
Cheers for all the help, Michael

You can keep your /home partition if you have one. I consider that to be one of the big benefits of partitioning a system: When you nuke it, you can still keep your user data. =)
Good luck with sarge. I've found it to be just fine for my purposes.
