Recently picked up a copy of Debian 2.0 from CheaperBytes discount place, 4 cdrom set.
My question(s): Has anyone else purchased the Cheaper Bytes CD's? And is the version being distributed by Cheaper Bytes the same in layout etc as that which DebIan have on the net? When installing I run into a problem of the install program not being able to find the directories where the rpm's are installed. It keeps prompting me for the path to the necessary rpm's. After several Slackware and Redhat installations I find this part of the DebIan installation to be rather confused and confusing. Either the DebIan distribution is extremely poor in this area or the Cheaper Bytes distribution has strayed from what originated with DebIan. I have printed out the directories of both the binary and src cdroms with the intent of taking another run at this installation. Would appreciate any pointers as to what this apparent lack of direction to the proper install directories might mean. Oh yes, I'm installing onto a single processor Pentium system with 64 meg of memory, and 8 gig of disk. It has run both Slackware and RedHat with no problem. The CDROM is scsi based and the DebIan distribution does correctly recognize the controller UF14 so that's not a problem. Thanks Jonathan
