Re: i made a mess with dselect

Hi, As is pointed out on the Debian site, you can get a really low priced version of the Official Debian CD from several web sites for around $5 or $6 if you don't want to download the entire distribution off the net. I would mention the company but I am not sure if that it considered advertismen
