Hello,
you certainly try to install the (curent) stable (Woody or 3.0r) release of Debian: you may consider to install the (curent) testing (Sarge or 3.15) version of Debain (which is on the edge to be the next stable version): its installation is far easier and it contains more recent stuff.
Bon courage, Jerome

Hello all,
I'm a Linux newbie. Been trying RedHat, Fedora, Mandrake distros and finally thought of something more serious so here I am. So far I was used to go for an Ext3 filesystem for my 'root' and 'home' partitions. Very convenient, as I don't know a lot about the other exotic filesystems available with Linux. But here, installing a very freshly downloaded set of Debian cd's, the installer did not offer me the 'EXT3' choice. The best I could get was 'EXT2'. How comes ?
By the way I find it kind of awkward that the default kernel offered by Debian is a 2.2 (a pain in the arse if you think about setting up a sound device, as Alsa is not included).
Could anyone enlighten me with some explanation ?
Thanx,
Vince.
