I've done 2 or 3 clean Sarge installs in the past month. Each time I have downloaded a daily build of the debian-installer and used it. That way I only have to download 35 - 100MB (depending on which version of the installer you want to use) to have a cd I can boot from and start the installation. (I downloaded a new iso each time as one of the installs was a Sparc and the other a x86.) If the installer does not recognize your network setup, you will find the full installer more helpful than the businesscard image. This way you only have to download the software you want to use, instead of the full 13CDs for Sarge (I think that's the size I heard for Sarge... haven't had a reason to check). When using the Debian-Installer, enter expert26 at the boot prompt and it will install a 2.6 kernel for you. There are other options for a 2.6 kernel as well, if you don't want to be in expert mode. I forget what they are, but the installer will tell you which Fn key to press to see the list of choices. HTH, Jacob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
