Hello laptop.deb's,
I have gotten a NEW OLD LAptop and I like to install Debian.
MS-Dos 6.2 was no problem, but... it's a Microsoft product.
Which Version of Debian is recommended ?
bo, hamm, slink, potatop or woody ?
Oh yes, I have no CD and no lpd-port. Only one Floppy and mono-display.

Hello list!
I have a brand new compaq Evo N410c, but I have to wait for a while
before I get a dock with fdd and dvd. Can I use a local network to
install debian linux? I have a Debian box running in the same network
but I have always booted the Debian installation from floppies.

Hi,
I've a woody laptop system and i change alot from network to network at
my job. Usually all the networks i join are windows machines networks
using smb protocol to communicate. I wanted to know if there's any way
to resolv the windows domain names under linux?

Of course I should have said more. The system has "Windows 2000 Professional"
preinstalled. On startup, I can press F10 to enter setup and get the boot
options:
Quickboot (can enable or disable)
MultiBoot (can enable or disable)
Boot order (can choose)
NoteBook MultiBay1
NoteBook MultiBay2
Note
Hi Listies:
And to add to this question, can you use SAMBA to access windows on a
different partition of the same HD from the drive?
TIA

Well, after fiddling with the setup, I found the boot alternative
"Notebook Ethernet" that can be enabled.

You probably won't be able to, but you might want to do some reading before
giving up.

You can boot over ethernet (pexe iirc) this way, it should allow you to
repartition and install your hard disk :)

Thank You Joris, but could you be a LITTLE more specific - how does one prepare
the "server" side (i.e. my debian desktop on the LAN), and how does one take
contact from the booting client laptop -- what do U mean by pexe iirc?

Check the Samba docs ('apt-get install samba-doc' if you don't have them).
It appears that NSS does work with NetBIOS names; the name to know is
winbind. Read /usr/share/doc/samba-doc/htmldocs/winbind.html for the
details.
