Hello Steve, Thanks again for your time. Since this is part of learning for me, I have set up another system for it to avoid getting into much problem with my laptop and hence my work. Whatever I learn in this new system about the installation I can safely apply to my laptop. I have tried to get the key following the two ways specified at http://keyserver.ubuntu.com:11371/ but no success yet, access denied. I will post to debian list. Regards Ogbos
