I was surprised, why the hell so "LOTS" of them.

Hi,
I've succesfully installed Debian (wheezy) on a Macbook pro 8,1 and now the
hard part is to make the hardware to work nicely ;)
Currently, the touchpad works as a mouse with only one button and I'm trying
to fix that following the wiki (http://wiki.debian.org/MacBookPro). I've
installed mtrack
Thanks to all who responded to my query.
Jude suggested I try an espeakeup enabled squeeze iso... very
interesting... I would never have thought of that. Something to try in the
future.

To configure the bios you have to have a display on the external

So, I can understand your frustration but, 4 discs out of how many thousands
