1. Read the new apt HOWTO, available as a package and at the Debian web site. 2. Add unstable lines to /etc/apt/sources.list. Use netselect-apt (now in testing) to find the nearest mirror. 3. Create an appropriate /etc/apt/preferences. Mine is listed below. 4. apt-get update; apt-get install galeon/unstable dep1/unstable dep2/unstable ... You'll have to run the install line a few times until you have discovered and listed all dependencies on the command line. If you only have stable, there will be a LOT. Maybe too many. With woody, less than 10. -----/etc/apt/preferences follows----- Package: * Pin: release a=testing Pin-Priority: 600 Package: * Pin: release a=unstable Pin-Priority: 80 5. Read the apt HOWTO again ;-). -- Bill Wohler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.newt.com/wohler/ GnuPG ID:610BD9AD Maintainer of comp.mail.mh FAQ and mh-e. Vote Libertarian!
