I have personally used partimage while shuffling around a FAT
partition, and it worked great. Absolutely no problems. partimage
was solid, which is what you want with something as important as all

physically stops working.
Of course, rebooting takes time, so if ctrl+alt+backspace doesn't
work then logging in remotely with ssh or a null modem before messing
with stuff will save time.

t buggy, you're fine (he says optimistically... :)
Anyway, we both agree that logging in remotely is the way to go. I
was just pointing out that, especially for this problem, you can get
away with not doing that if you can deal with the system when it's
having problems. (For the dis

loadlin with an initrd thing. If you get stuck, just look at how they
do it, or just use one of those and morph it into Debian once you've
installed :)

It's interesting to note that even though apt-cache search dhcpcd only
finds pump, (i.e. dhcpcd is not part of woody anymore), you can still
download the dhcpcd package through packages.debian.org/dhcpcd, and it's on
the mirrors.

BTW, the locate command is good for finding files. I'll just tell you
where to find XF86Config, though. If it exists at all, it'll be in
/etc/X11. That's where all the X config files live.
