Hi,
Over a year ago I tried to install Debian, but did have the
time to play with the installation. I'm thinking of giving it
another try and was wondering if there are any current
books on the installation procedure.
TIA.

is there a way of using a debian command
to see what packages I have o

Hi,
I finally got woody installed on my cpu. I'm now
trying to get my printer to work. When I try signing on
as root thru the GNOME deskop mgr I get a message
informing me that root is not allowed to sign-on
