a way around it would be to use either the etch installer to install sarge or use a backported installer (for example from http://kmuto.jp/debian/d-i/). then you should have not problems with hw an have a stable (and not changing) system. though if you can spend the bandwith to try i would probably reocmmend to try to start with a standard sarge netinst cd.... (if you want to have the newer apps later on, you can easily upgrade, but not downgrade). yours Albert - -- Albert Dengg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFE7yG7hrtSwvbWj0kRAoHeAJ47CkyrUUJ2/XkLyaK9wxyt0VAhUgCeMQxi /+sqicZn9yqfw5ptoqeofLM= =8ecp -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
