if you do 'apt-get update && apt-get install live-helper' and revert your sources.list afterwards, this is safe and will not damage your system. if you want to have sid repository permanently in your sources.list, read man apt_preferences for pinning unstable lower than stable. > Also, what's the difference between debootstrap and cdebootstrap? debootstrap is shell and the official used tool; cdebootstrap is reimplementation in c, faster but usually less good supported. -- Address: Daniel Baumann, Burgunderstrasse 3, CH-4562 Biberist Email: daniel.baum...@panthera-systems.net Internet: http://people.panthera-systems.net/~daniel-baumann/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-live-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
