Hi,
I already read the FAQ, that's why I am already using the "nodelalloc"
mount option.
I also tried "eatmydata":

I've been running Debian Squeeze for a little while now. I was using
Ubuntu before, so I'm really used to being able to keep certain
software up-to-date using their PPA system. I'm loving Debian (even

system), but there are a few pac

Hi!
I've got a notebook presario 1245, and a pcmcia net adapter. I
need to update the pcmcia modules (I guess, as i had the same problem with
suse 7) in order to make work the net adapter. I guess that if the updates

Something that has been bothering me for quite a while: someone went
through the trouble of making a /usr/local/lib/xemacs/xemacs-packages/
directory, but then when I use XEmacs' built in package updating I

Hello,
Sometime ago I got the Debian GNU/Linux 1.1.4.Sept96 release. Working
with it, I managed to set up my little system at home.(I was very proud
of myself ;-)).
Two months ago, I borrowed from some friends the Debian 1.3.1. release.
Eagerly :-) I began updating packages, installing this
Hi,
I would just update my installed packages with deselect, but the procedure
to do so doesn't seem very clear to me. All that I get is 0 packages to
load. What is wrong ?

Hi,
I have been updating packages by manually ftping them from ftp.debian.org
and putting them in a directory which I have nfs exported to the other

packages I want updated.
