Have read 2 Debian Install Manuals, 3X each, dselect, cfdsk, bootprompt HOWTO, basic book on Unix, modem HOWTO, Josh's Linux Guide, and have started on Rute Users' .....Not to mention following 2 newsgroups and spending hours on the Net....... But all these materials assume much more knowledge than they think. My old Brother word processor (read:: text editor in Linux) hadn't broken down in November 2001, and I just ordered a Gateway the nest day for MS Word. I do a lot of writing and couldn't even spare the time to shop around. *Then* I got mesmerized by these incredible tools and learned about Linux a month after that. There are grade-school kids who can do more with my computer than I can. But I'm studying hard, and it's starting to make real sense. Will get up the courage to install one of these days. There's someone that will babysit over the phone while I run through LILO config, cfdsk, and dbootstrap and dselect/dpkg, but I have to feel comfortable with the process first, in my mind. Will be sending XPernicious to cyberhell and installing a rudimentary console-only setup at first, with comm apps, text editor, and necessary utilities. I have become dependent on e-mail for business, and the Install must work the first time/day. Bruce<+> [EMAIL PROTECTED]
