If you boot up a fresh install of Debian & after you boot up, plug in your
Ethernet cable & try to add software, Debian asks for the install disk. If you
plug in Ethernet BEFORE you boot up it will look online for software. WOW, that
was frustrating! I'm FINALLY online with Debian on my Acer Aspire One. Special
thanks to Hugo Vanwoerkom. Instead of telling me to look it up, requiring me to
reboot into another OS to get online, he just told me exactly what I needed to
do. Now I can do all the learning & testing of Debian from INSIDE Debian.
Thanks again Hugo! Ok I'm off the install Skype & see how to auto-mount ntfs
partitions... if anyone has some advice on the the ntfs auto-mount, I'm gunna
start a new thread. I was using "ntfs-config" in Ubuntu 9.10, but I don't see
that in Debian Synaptic Package Manager.
