Easier for new people to use?!? /me rolls off chair laughing. I sincerely hope the ":-P" means you are using sarcasm. dselect was the reason I stayed away from Debian for 3 years! Every casual installation I made got as far as dselect and I sat there going "wtf is this?" And I was the type that I was rolling my own RPM files for our local network. It was only after enough people around me were seriously using Debian that I finally grit my teeth and waded through. -- chris jantzen kb7rnl =-> __O Insert witty comment here. _`\<,_ http://www.maybe.net/ (*)/ (*)
