I'd like to continue to have a working perl binary without installing
the full package; disk space is a big issue. The base set of 0.93 gave
me perl 5.001m as /usr/bin/perl (and /bin/perl symlinked to it). To
dpkg it's orphaned; and I can't dig up an old Contents file now to see
if any old packag

My problem, since upgrading is similiar. I get the prompt, enter username

big inconvienence, but I have been curious why this happ

You're going to have to load your net card module and run "ifconfig"
and "route" by hand if you try to do it from the boot floppy. When
you're done, Please write us a script to d

Hi,
I seem to be having a lot of trouble installing or removing
the kernel image/header/source packages. dpkg fails, and then the
packages get marked as needing reinstallation before they can be
configured or removed. This happened with both the 1.99.7 and the
2.0.0 packages :-(

I installed the beta a few weeks ago. I realize that there's a procedure
to upgrade from 0.93 to 1.1, but is there a procedure to upgrade from
