Looks pretty good to me, as it looks like the command line prompt. If
it insists on repeating the
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$
when you press the enter key a second time, then it's even better. :)
I clearly remember sitting for at least 30-45 minutes after my first
Linux (Debian) install, looking at the command line prompt. "dir"
didn't work, and I was lost. :D
I'd suggest a decent book on Linux to help you get a grip on the
operating system. My own is Sobell's "A Practical Guide to Linux."
There are a number of others.
Since you obviously have an Internet connection, try Googling at
www.google.com/linux
using a few keywords, like "newbie guide" (without the quotes, of
course). You'll come away with things to try.
Welcome to Linux, and congratulations on choosing Debian!
