Much as I love Debian ( I *LOVE* DEBIAN!!) Installation has always been a
problem for me. I still can't get X working on my dell laptop. I even
copied working config files from RH and knoppix which both ran fine on
that machine! So a warning: Debian does not install as well as some other
distros. I still love it. (Once installed, everything works. It will
spoil you forever.)

Anyway, next time I try it I will definately check this site out. Thanks
Grady!!!

A word of advice: Once you switch to testing or unstable it is hard to go
back to stable.
