I've got two machines, one slackware 3.0 (I think), and the other is
redhat 3.0.3 that I want to move to debian.  The problem is that they're
too far away and I can't get in front of them in person, so wiping the box
and installing from scratch really isn't an option.

Does anyone have any suggestions about how I can put on dpkg and slowly
install debian packages until I borg borg borg the machines?  I assume
dpkg is available in something like a .tar.gz that I can compile and put
on the boxes, and from there I can just start installing package after
package.

Anyone have any hints/suggestions for this?  I've kept up with Linux and
the various distributions for some time, so I know most of the gotchas
caused by libc and kernel upgrades already.
