To All-- Thanks for the feedback, and my sincere congratulations to those
of you who've mastered the intricacies of Debian. For years I've been
hoping to find an OS that would get me out of Windows, and I had high
hopes Linux might be it, but all I have to show for scores of hours is
the immense frustration I earlier expressed.
After running setserial and wvdial, disabling PnP, and many other
efforts, I finally, to overcome the system's refusal to detect my modem
(Diamond Supra 288i SP), attempted to re-install (grasping at straws),
but now it tells me "there was a problem" extracting the base system
files from the CD-rom, so re-installation has failed and I have nothing
for weeks of effort.-- Max
