Hello.
I have this weekend, managed to install Debian 7.5 amd64 xfce version
onto a laptop computer.
However, the sound does not work.
In searching, I have found that the laptop apparently has a Realtek
soundcard (and, an inbuilt Intel something soundcard thing).

I will give it a go.
Download the netinstall .iso file for the Debian version you want. Check
the authenticity of the .iso file with md5sum

Hi,
DebianInstaller shows "FREE SPACE" before the first partition and
after the last partition if GPT scheme is used:

Dear all,
I'm a newbie in using Debian, my first task (and a good chance to learn
using debian) is to setup an email server with the following hardware:
Intel S1200btlr board (Intel C204 chipset) with a Xeon E3-1230v2 CPU on it
2*1T disks, form a RAID1 by intel embeded server raid technology II
(
Jape,
It sounds like the fsck is being conducted while the initramfs is loaded
and thus no log is being saved. Ideally, there would be a way to have the
console dumped to dmesg.

Hi,
I just used
# apt-get install systemd-sysv
on several Debian testing systems (fully up-to-date).
It has been my habit to use
# touch /forcefsck
to force a file system check at reboot once per week on each system and
to keep track of the results by copying the contents of
/var/log/fsck/

"invoke-rc.d" is meant for maintainer scripts and not users (don't ask me why).
"/etc/init.d/ " doesn't sanitize the environment.

I've never understood why, but "invoke-rc.d" and "update-rc.d" are
meant for maintainer scripts not users.

The amount of updates that testing receives depends greatly on the
current phase of the release cycle. I don't know whether there are hard
numbers

You can also just not install every update. There is no reason to
obsessively "track" Testing.

You are surprised that Debian developers are readying testing for the
coming freeze by updating software

another one, but latest pilicykit update in testing gets policykit
depends on systemd (via libpam-systemd).
I don't know, is it really needed? I don't want to switch to systemd
