There are dvd images of Sarge. I would install the base sarge and then once it's up and running edit /etc/apt/sources.list to testing and apt-get update, then apt-get upgrade, then apt-get dist-upgrade. This has always worked for me. I've tried the testing install iso's a couple times and have not had good luck with them for unknown reasons, but upgrading from sarge has worked well (for me anyway YMMV). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
