I have to agree. After switching to Linux I'm constantly impressed with everything about Debian (I ran SLS and then Slackware before). The only thing unimpressive about my setup is the operator/sysadmin's lack of knowledge. :-) And, speaking of that, can I ask a stupid question? Okay. What/where/when is Debian 1.3 going to be released? I'm using 1.2, getting upgrades through the net with dselect in its default setup pointing at debian.org and the stable, non-free, and contrib subdirectories. I read a fragment of one message somewhere that 1.3 is actually in the frozen subdirectory; is that true? If I were to make my dselect point at stable, non-free, contrib, and frozen would that cause the upgrade? Or should I wait until it's moved from frozen to stable (anyone know if/when that'll be?)? As a Debian newbie who's never gone through an upgrade process, I'd appreciate any wisdom, and details of standard procedures that anyone could shed on this process. | __ o Regards, | / / _ _ _ _ _ __ __ . | / /__ / / / \// //_// \ \/ / Randy | /____/ /_/ /_/\/ /___/ /_/\_\ ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) | ...because reboots are for upgrades... -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
