1) I think I have the most up to date stable (slink) system, I have used
apt-get to do an update/upgrade, and everything seems OK.
2) when I use dselect, I do not get the multi-cd option; but I have a
release on multiple cd's (2.1R4).
3) when I use the cd2 from this set, all works fine, but if I try to use
cd1, it complains about the path, and no Packages file found, although it
is there, and in the right place (same as CD#2).
4) I tried to do apt-get install xfree86 to get the most up to date
version, but it did nothing. Is there a way to use apt-get to know what
needs upgrade, and to get the latest without 80-100MB downloads?
Thanks,
Gregory
