No you havn't to download all images of woody to install it. In fact you don't even need a full image of cd 1 to install - there are some net install images around there, which are much smaller and are able to download all software packages from the internet while installing :-) http://www.debian.org/CD/netinst/ But you can also use the first four CDs of woody for example to install from cd and get all other software from the net. (Most of the interesting software will be on the first cds) > what is the differnce between sarge and woody? Woody is the current stable release - meaning it has been tested a long time and it is very stable. And there are security updates available for it, so you get updates for packages with security risks really fast. But because of the testing phase and the fact that woody was first released 19th of July, 2002 some of the packages are a bit outdated (here you can get backports with newer software). Sarge is the current testing "release" - so this is more up to date than woody, but testing it has not finished yet. You may use this on your own pc but I do not recommend to use it on a production system (as a server for example), because there may be some errors and security risks ans these not updated as fast as in woody. > sorry if my questions are not very good. My english isn't eihter ;-) But I remember my teachers: "There are no bad questions... only bas answers." (and I hope mine isn't) Cheers, Jan -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFAH2EtvvmCkIIgH8QRAiw9AJ48ggAg9enlNl3W9hf+VNsRaE+lVACffHH6 p7NsXKdtQYIZrIOVt1fTPvA= =oNCp -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
