Hi David We installed Potato pre Beta in Jan 2000 I ran it until late last November when we upgraded to Woody pre Beta. Never been sorry. Rock solid
I suspect if you are running a server, run Potato. To paraphrase somebody, Potato is out of date, but stable Woody is broken in a few respects but works mostly very well Sid is broken in many respects, but if you file bug reports, the bugs get fixed more quickly, since it isn't frozen. And the bug reports are a service. I suppose you have to decide between up-to-date and reliability. YOu get a lot of each with any Debian choice. --David On Mon, 31 Dec 2001, David Z Maze wrote: > penguin1 <Penguin> writes: > P> AKA taken out of frozen and put into stable or whatever. > P> Is it worth waiting for the first Woody proper rather than getting a > frozen > P> Woody right now? > > Only parts of woody are actually "frozen" right now.
