I haven't tried to install Debian in a while, but I'm thinking of moving from Redhat/Mandrake to Debian when Woody comes out. I used jigdo to form a CD for debian-30p8-i386-binary-1_NONUS.iso and first tried making all the floppies in idepci set but the rescue floppy wouldn't boot my computer. When I put the floppy I used to install Redhat 7.3 back in that booted fine. Then I tried "find | grep rescue" and made all the floppy options possible and none of them booted either. I remember there used to be Tecra Images in Debian 2.2 (or earlier?) to prevent a cycling problem (related to bzImage or something like that). But I've searched the net and debian.org for Woody Tecra images and I don't see anything.
Does anyone have an older Tecra that they are running Woody on? I followed a bit of the KDE 3.0/Xfree86 4.2 Debian news and at first I was thinking I should stay with Redhat. But KDE is now slow as molasses on my Tecra and I have to run with option noaccel using Xfree 4.2 anyway so I'm sure 4.1 is going to be fine. I'm going to have to switch to a lighter DE/WM - perhaps Rox on IceWM or WM2 (I didn't care for XFCE) - any advice on that front?
