Must it, now? And which people? I don't have a problem with the installer. I'd rather have devs working on other stuff than on something that works (for me). Many people, including me, would not recommend debian for a linux novice, though there are debian-based distros that some might recommend. But I don't really see this as a problem. There are different distros for different needs, and debian is designed for the needs of an experienced linux user. -- monique -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
