Hi,
Recently, there have been a couple of messages asking

Linux in their Organisation. While Linux is a great

makers are lacking in awareness,

Hi,
wrt query by LL for text based chat software ( if I

Why bother about the Debian installer. Even when its
final version is released it may still be ncurses
based install. Better alternative is to use Knoppix as
install disk for Debian and thereafter to tweak the
system as desired.

I think you are talking about 'parted' which is a gnu
software. It comes with Debian as also other
distributions like Mandrake and Redhat. To use it
however he has to boot from floppy which should also
contain the compiled 'parted' utility. Well, it is
possible to recover the partitions.
