You have to reboot to install Debian, but you can make a boot floppy using files on the CD. In fact, you can find full instructions at the official Debian web site, http://www.debian.org. There's an "Installation Manual" link right there on the front page that explains everything quite well. -- Carl Fink [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jabootu's Minister of Proofreading http://www.jabootu.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
