Daniel, Debain works fine on Dells. A couple tips assuming you are installing from the Woody CD:
1) Use the BF24 boot option so that you are installing a 2.4 kernel and not the default 2.2 kernel 2) You may run into problems with your RAID array due to a chicken/egg problem with the driver. There is a perfect "how-to" at http://lists.us.dell.com/pipermail/linux-poweredge/2002-September/003971.html to work around the problem. The how-to says you can do it on the system during install but I have found it is *much* easier to make the driver floppy on another system first. 3) There is more info on Matt Domsch's page at http://domsch.com/linux Pete -- http://www.elbnet.com ELB Internet Service, Inc.
