That's probably what he is trying to avoid. Having to re-install isn't really fun; it's a waste of time and shouldn't be needed, so why encourage it. > go wrong.

The OP told us what he has available and what he plans to use his computer for, so it's really easy to suggest something reasonable with which he won't need to keep installing. The 20 different answers from 10 different people might be exactly what he's looking for since all the installation and partitioning guides are all theory. > questions.

There's someone who seems to go about installing Debian in a systematic and informed way, reading the available documentation, trying things out and asking good questions on the appropriate mailing list. And now we seriously tell him "ah screw it and just install and if it doesn't work out right you do it again and again and again until you might get it right eventually"? I would be ashamed to tell him that. -- Debian testing iad96 brokenarch -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
