I am fairly new to the linux world, but I have been running Red Hat for a couple of months with few problems. I am trying to install the debian release on a PIII-550 MHz for use a an Oracle database server. I read the instructions and cannot get the installation to complete properly. I have an operational system, but some basic tools such as pico are not installed or I cannot find them. Also the program to setup my x environment is missing also. I have all these features working fine on Red hat 6.0. I feel that I must be missing something during installation.
any help is greatly appreciated. Ramon
