I did the installation for debian, but it failed miserably. It did the initial install, but it crashed every time I rebooted, so I booted from the boot disk I created.
Once I did that (it took about 15 minutes to read the kernel from the floppy), it went to the main installer thing. I selected the developer option with extra bits (I selected it because it included perl, but it looks like it included absolutely every language ever made). It took me to the dselect screen, but I couldn't figure out how to select and deselect packages so I just left it as it was. Once I'd fluked and managed to exit (q, Q, x, and ESC only seem to do something on specific screens, so I had to go in and out of a bunch of screens before it would let me exit), I got to the screen that lets me start the actual installation phase. Unfortunately, halfway through the installer one of the scripts returned with an error. When I selected install again, it went past it, but it failed in some configuration section. I don't know what went wrong because it scrolled a few screens full of stuff past. After that, every time I selected install, it ran through all the packages and then returned with anotehr script error. When I selected exit, it said my system was installed and ready to go, so I logged in and tried running some programs, but they all failed because they couldn't find any shared libraries. Is there something I'm doing wrong here? ===== __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Bid and sell for free at http://auctions.yahoo.com
