I recently installed Debian from an official set, slowly the things get better. The last changes that I managed to do ( a whole adventure for a windows newcomer!) left me with even a connection to the internet through wvdial. My main problem is that I have very little memory (about 1.3 gig). Any way, after this last change, when I tried to boot again, I got a cycle of Lilo ..... and back to the reboot, never ending. So I put the floppy created during first installation, trying to fix the matter. But I don't think it is fixed. Now, I wanted to remove a bunch of things trying to clean a little and leave room for a more bare installation, but it does not remove much. Tells me that dpkg is not good. How do I re-install it? Even better, I would do a re-installation from scratch, getting a bare little one with may be some TeX, math utilities, gcc++, and web connection. But I have no idea how to do it. Please help, give detailed indications if possible, I am just now getting used to the UNIX environment, now learning to use emacs, but not sure yet. Thanks, Antonio.
