Hi there I have installed debian-frozen-base-system on my 386 via floppy and my local network. Beside a problem to load any modules wich I was able to fix all went fine. (I had to copy /etc/modules.conf to /target/etc/modules.conf cause it was missing from the start !) A bug ? It's the first time for me with debian and I'am quite impressed from what I've seen ! Now I have to wait until I got the CD's end of june. ( I hope. ) In the meantime I want to to learn how things work in debian comparded to RedHat, SuSe... The hardware is working (scsi, eth, arc0&co, isdn&co, sbpcd, lp's...) I also got mc running (copyed one by one from suse until the screen went blue) Now I want to know how to get deb-files to the disk. Still got an corel-image which I know its debian-based, mounted as an loop-device. I can browse the CD but I don't know how to install the files. I know it's maybe old stuff but to play around it is ok. The man-program is missing so I can't look at the man-pages on the disk :( The doc-files are all packed and not possible for me to view :( Is there anything I can do in the meantime ? Maybe first to get man running and/or copy some stuff from suse to be able to view the packed docu ? Or is it possible to get an easy acces to the corel-stuff ? I got 2 disks about 2Gig each so plenty of space. Well, it's not a real problem. If it's better/easier to wait for the real stuff, no problem. Thanks for any tips.
