Re: Official Debian

Hello John, I have the same book Debian GNU/Linux 2.1, but never used the CD that came with it... I ordered a CD from http://www.Libranet.com, it comes with a full year of Support Help, not any other vendor I know does this... I will say this though, there CD was a snap to Install Debian, so befor

Re: Official Debian

Potato is the current stable (version is 2.2r2) but a large number of packages are out of date. Woody is 'testing' now (not unstable any more) so I expect that it is now quite reasonable and will be 'stable' soon. If you don't need to install right away, I would recommend waiting a while and get

Re: Official Debian

This is the only O'Reilly book I regret having bought but the full text is online and has helped me a couple of times. All in all though a copy of Running Linux and a 2.2r2 cd would be the ideal solution. -- Original Message -- From: "Michael P. Soulier" <
