It seems to be logical, stupid that I haven't found it on my own.
Nevertheless, thank you.

Hi,
I want to assign a lower priority to packages which come from other
sites than debian.org.
The problem:
testing is my target release. In my sources.list there the following
entries:
deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main
deb http://ftp.at.debian.org/debian stable main non-fr

This is not working with the testing installation CD. 'rescue' is not
allowed.

This results in a kernel panic:
cannot open device /dev/hda2.

I overwrote my MBR while installing another OS.

Hi,
I try to compile the 2.4.20 Kernel. It worked before, but on that
(older) computer it does not. I do the following steps:
I download the kernel-source-2.4.20 package, unpack the source and enter
the source dir. Then:
cp /boot/config-2.4.20-3-k6 .config
make-kpkg clean
make-kpkg --initrd --
Thank you guys for your hints. Now I found out why it's not working:
I have to load uhci.
Reason:
I had recompiled the kernel and the new uhci modules was called uhci
instead of usb-uhci (because it's the alt one). So, there is a diffence between
the compiled version and the kernel source con

I've read HOWTOs and asked Google but I can't find the solution:

modprobe printer

Yes, I found some of dpkg.status.x files.
But I don't know when these files are written. Is a backup made always
when I install new packages? There must be a config file for that. I
haven't found one in /etc.
Is there a docu

I've done a really stupid thing:
I tried to install&compile some stuff for the kernel which failed.
I made a dump before that, which I restored to make my system running
again.
But I forgot to dump & restore the /var parition.
Therefore data in /var/lib/dpkg are not consistent with the re

Hi,
I managed to compile some small C-programs with large file support using

How can I make this default? Maybe with environment variables?

I'm installing Debian on an old machine. Therefore, I need a fast browser.

Or are there other fast browsers with flash/java support which I should

just a question, I couldn't find an answer, yet.
If I use

If not how can I do that? I know there is the command dpkg-reconfigure but
I don't want to do a reconfiguration and it should be done automatically
