My goal: understand Debian from a fairly low level on up
Environment: a laptop dedicated exclusively as a learning environment
Resources: complete DVD sets for Squeeze and Wheezy (totally
isolated from internet ;)
History:
When initially moving from Windows to Debian, installed Squeeze
with Gnome2. A generally satisfactory experience though standard
install had programs I would never use and was missing essential
programs. I was tweaking it when I obtained Wheezy.
Gnome3 is an ugly non-starter. Investigating relative merits of
DE's led to understanding difference between a DE and a WM (thank
you to list for educational posts).
What should I be reading to understand:
1. what would be minimal set of programs to install?
2. what scripts get run after a cold or warm boot?
(I've discovered I know less about that than I thought I did.)
Thank you.
