I managed to install a base Debian system from the CD's I got from

to a different partition and booting from them, but the extra packages

I hit the exact problem over the weekend. Several posters told me
to change from stable to woody (or probably potato equally) in
/etc/apt/sources.list and then run apt-get upgrade and it fixed all for
me.

Hi all,
not strictly a Debian question, so please forgive me ...
My new 700MHz iBook arrived. Compared to my 600MHz iBook, there are two
immediate differences:

Hi,

I d/loaded and can boot the latest install CD fine, I type install at the
yaboot boot: prompt which then loads the
kernel and ramdisk image.
However, it then switches to a white displays saying:

is it the install-safe option at the yaboot prompt? Tried that with no luck
:(
maybe im doing something stupid to boot it. when the boot: prompt appears im
simply typing:
install-safe
so the line looks - boot: install-safe
thanks :o)

yes i'm using BootX to boot.
I have searched in the archive but without big results.
i was under the impression that there was no dual-processor 8500, that it

Ok, last night I realized that the problem might be that I patitioned the
drive for yellowdog using BootX to boot so I repartitioned the drive.
I tried yaboot again so I cleared out the drive with the "i" command, then
created the 800K bootstrap partition using "b", then a root partition using

hm, just a quick question:
should it be woody or testing in sources.list ?
mean woody is in testing right now (still) so i prefer to have testing
in.
and if it goes stable i should put stable in right ?
isnt the "safe" way to put stable,testing,unstable into sources.list

Do you have any more details on how to grab the new kernel image please?
I've searched for it

I am new to this list. I am trying to learn enough to install Linux for
several macs, from IIsi to G3.
For some reason I cannot get Outlook Macintosh Edition 5 to automatically
move messages from this list (and the other debian lists) to my Linux
folder. I have tried every "Rule" I can think of.

I guess you have two options:
urgh.
Grabbed the 2.4.18 kernel from kernel.org (Installed the package but
complained about
modules)
make menuconfig complains about no -lncurses (or ncurses not being
installed). Quick hack to /lib, then reran make menuconfig.
complained about no curses.h :(
Check with dselect and it says that

You need libncurses5-dev

I have one of the recently released iBook 700MHz laptops and would like to try

But I don't want to partition my disk and reinstall everything, what I would

I don't *think* so. OTOH It'll probably work as a normal external disk.

Hi folks,
I have Debian 2.2r3 and I installed it. I also have rp-pppoe because I
feel it's the best client to get hooked onto DSL. My problems are as
follows: I have the latest version of Roaring Penguin and 2.2r3. I got it
working a while back, but I re formatted the drive to make room for

So, you have 2.2r3 installed, but you don't have the PPPoE client on your
system? Or, you have it on your system, and it doesn't work. ? Did you try
"apt-cache search pppoe"? Here's what I get:

Nobody have done it yet, and it is not that simple as devices may
