Stable is more mature, with unstable we never know what errors
may be yet lurking...

I'm running an "unstable" system and I need remote access by
ssh. "Stable" is considered better for servers (but I need
unstable for newer versions of a lot of packages on my
workstation), "testing" gets security updates last, but
"unstable" has a higher version number of ssh. it safer to

When I ordered Debian woody i686 CDROM's from a vendor listed on
Debian.org, I got a set of seven. The first one gave me a list of
kernels to try. I wound up using the 2.4 kernel. I am now running
Windows 98SE and Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 woody 2.4.18 on this Gateway 500.

Good afternoon all.
The mirrors that I have looked at have binary-1 through binary-7. Which
is the correct one to use?
Also, I am using a second HDD for the install. Will the CD ask which HDD
to use?
Will the install give me way to chose which OS to boot?
Thanks in advance for the help.

For me, it's always displayed on the splash screen, when Gnome starts.
Anyway, dpkg -l gnome-core or dpkg -l|grep gnome should give you a hint.

I'm re-installing Debian on a system.
I tried this last month and ran into trouble with the video card (ATI Radeon
All-In-Wonder). It turns out the version of X in the current stable branch
does not support my card well. The previous version supported it and 4.2
supports it.

since lame seems to be the best mp3 encoder and there's no .deb
there's a question - which version to use? the 3.70 seems to be quite
old but the newer one 3.89beta is, well, beta. Does anybody have
experience with how good the beta is? I am mainly interested in sound

surely you could run even a 2.4 kernel on a 386 with 8 Mb of ram?
I thought it was the Window managers and applications you chose to ran on linux
that dicated the hardware specs.. not the distribution version?
if i'm wrong i'd better find out why because it means i'm worng about a lot of
stuff.
The latest stable is 2.2. You're machine is more powerful than
mine, and I'm running 2.2 with no performance problems.
