Sounds like you have made a good decision! It will take a while for you to get used to linux --- but hang in there, you'll get it in the end. Have you read the information on the world wide web at: http://www.debian.org/releases/slink/i386/install Hopefully this will answer some of your questions. If you still have more questions, feel free to write back to this list.
