Yes, I apparently have the same problem. I bought Debian 2.2 CD-Rs from
Cheapbytes and Setup complains about missing rescue floppies. blah... I

of exactly the same "missing rescue floppy" problem during setup.

I just received my Debian 2.2 CDs from Cheapbytes -- 3 binary
CD-ROMS. I could not boot off the first one (the installation program
complained that it couldn't mount the rescue image).
I decided to run `md5sum' on each file on the CD-ROM, and compare its
output with the file /cdrom/md5sum.txt.

I am going to a computer show this weekend and would like to buy the CDs for

release numbers so I know what to ask for?

Hi!
I got potato on CD's and followed the update instructions on them. That
is, I updated my slink versions of apt and dpkg to the statically linked
newer versions. Then I did apt-cdrom add for all binary cd's and followed
that with apt-get update. So far so good.
When I did apt-get --fix-broken -
Whenever I try to start XWindows it stops with the error /dev/mouse does not
exsist. How do I find out what the device name for the mouse is and reconfigure
it for XWindows ?
Thanks,

run gpmconfig
try setting the port to /dev/ttyS0
set the "type" to MS
see what happens
or run
gpm -t ms -m /dev/ttyS0
for a quick test then run gpmconfig to make it permament(or edit the

John,
1) What do MTA, MUA, MDA stand for?
I know that mutt is a mailer, not unlike exim and smail, but has
other functionality. proc
I have been having trouble getting my mouse to work. This a what my
gpm.conf has in it;
device=/dev/mouse
responsiveness=
repeat_type=m3
type=bare
append="-l\a-zA-Z0-9.:/\300\326\330-\366\370-\377\""
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yo. Two straws worth grasping at:

package (as you did) doesn't automatically do this, I believe.
