Welcome Tom. I`m a former Mandrake and Conectiva user, who was converted by Debian :-) First of all: you will find 99.99% of the info you need taking a look at www.debian.org . The names came from Toy Story ( movie) potato: Latest Stable Version ( 2.2.rev6) woody: "unstable" version or pre-stable, in this particular case already frozen :-) and SID meens Still in Development.
Debian users and fans, correct me if I`m wrong :-) regards Francisco ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tom Badran" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <debian-user@lists.debian.org> Sent: Thursday, June 27, 2002 4:23 AM Subject: Debian Newbie > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > Hi everybody.
