I think Infomagic should put a little more effort in distributing Debian: the booklet instructions cover Redhat and Slackware, which are, by the way, simpler in installation than debian (the main reason is that the user interface of dselect is not intuitive to me, and I kept making errors on my third installation too). So, some people have the feeling that debian is not the way to go, while upgrading a debian installation is of course much simpler than in other distributions. It's my first attempt at Debian (my previous experiences were with slackware 2.1, 2.2., 2.3, 3.0, and little yggdrasil & redhat) and I really like it, altough I've been disappointed by some a.out binaries.
