I have a box which the CD ROM is going bad. I don't want to get another one since it isn't used that often. Can I point Debian to another machine on my network to install the files from a CD ROM whch does work? I know I can apt-get the stuff from the net but over a 56k it takes forever. I'd rather pull it off one on my other Debian machines. What command would I use to point it to a particular machine.
I also have a 486 which I am going to try to run as a terminal server. If it loads a shell it will be like my Dorio dumb terminals? If it runs X then that will be great. From what I've read I'm going to have to put the card and monitor of the terminal into the /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file. I know some of you have worked on the k-12 ltsp. I've been reading and I think it's a great idea and want to try it.
