Hello,
Because I live in the US I prefer to use ftp.us.debian.org as my mirror of
choice in my apt source, however every once in a while I have problems with
it, which makes me think I should give up and use a different mirror. I think
the correct solution though is to fix the bad mirror, since

I have a computer with an Intel mainboard (I"ll look up the exact model later
if it matters) running Etch.
/ is an 80G SATA on SATA1.
/data is a 500G SATA drive on SATA2.
I've never had any trouble with the system.
I ran out of space on /data so I've installed a 3rd drive, 750G. I've only got

Please excuse the dumb question, but:
Is this still the recommended way to upgrade from Sarge to Etch?:

That page makes it out like using aptitude is somehow better than apt-get.

Hello,
On Debian Sarge, I used to use "dpkg-reconfigure etherconf" to reconfigure the
network settings after the basic install was finished (if I needed to change
the settings).
Just in case you don't know, "dpkg-reconfigure etherconf" brought up an
ncurses interface for configuring network se
Hello,
Main question: What should I use to setup network cards in Etch?
Details: For the last year or so I've been using the package "etherconf" to
set up secondary network cards and whenever I needed to change the initial
configuration.
Typically I "apt-get install ethconf" and for subsequent
