Debian ver 1.3 It is a slightly limited copy from a trilinux CD with
all 3 major disributions on 1 disk but should keep me happy untill my
ver 1.3.1 arrives.
I believe that the difference from ver 1

There are two main differences:
1) The init directories -- RedHat uses the /etc/rc.d/rcN.d type of layout while
Debian uses the /etc/rcN.d structure.
2) Debian packages tend to work and work with each other. They are better
integrated as a total distribution than RedHat's are.

You want to retrieve it to your system and then use a program called
RAWRITE2.EXE to write the file to the diskette.)
