  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 ;-).
