Hi. I am installing Debian over a network, and here's my question: is
there a way to replicate a Debian installation? This is what I'm
looking for:
* I install Debian in a machine (a)
* I personalize the packages I want/don't want at machine (a)
* After that, I want to install the same packages at
I keep getting this stupid error in my syslog:
modprobe: can't locate module char-major-6
now i searched my system, I dont have that module, how do I get this
error to stop? It puts 2 or 3 entries in the log a minute.
Any help would greatly be appreciated,
Erik
Again on the subject of buying new hardware, I'm looking for a good
way to copy my existing setup to the new machine. So far I can think
of three main types of options. In order of decreasing popularity, they
are:
1) Reinstall everything from scratch, then copy my home directory and some
conf file
The whole point of my post was to not have to read 17 web pages!

a bunch of drivers already compiled in, and any additional drivers
compiled as

Why are there only i386 packages for download on Debians web site?
I do not have, say, an Alpha but nevertheless it struck me as strange
that a search result from http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages leads
only to i386 downloads.
Is there anything
