<!-- Snip --> > Anyone else have any thoughts on this article? Thanks for the pointer, Randy! It was so refreshing to know that I'm not alone in my Debian installation blues. The article also pointed to a usenet news group: news://forum.linuxworld.com/linuxworld.forums.articles.2000-09-vcontrol_2 which was full of comments from other people in my position. I was so amused to read yet another posting from a Debian fan (no names mentioned) who claimed that the install was so easy that "A chicken could have done it. 95% of the time I was pecking at the Enter key". Trolls who go on like this really aren't doing Debian any favours, all they do is get people riled up, and start huge flame wars! But it got me thinking: I'd really like to see that chicken some time. He probably wears one of those t-shirts from http://www.thinkgeek.com/ with "got root?" printed on the back. Maybe an artistic-minded Debian fan could make a picture of the chicken, that could be used as an alternative to the penguin? He should be standing in front of a PC with the horrible dselect tree displayed on the screen, and should be "pecking" at the <shift><Q> key. I for one would buy a t-shirt with the chicken printed on it. Any takers? -- Best regards, Peter Hugosson-Miller "Quidquid Latine dictum sit, altum viditur."
