Downloading and installation of 8 CDs and 3 DVDs for just one debian GNU/Linux, its too heavy. Rewrite this Operating System in C language and make it smaller than one GB. Thanks. John Smith

John Smith John, This is probably off topic for debian-project and better for debian-user but I'll leave this here so that it can be found by others. If you have network bandwidth: use one netinst CD - less than 300 MB to download. There's a lot to Debian - 30,000 packages to choose from. Lots in C, some in C++, Ruby, bash script, python ... If you don't have network bandwidth to download packages directly from the 'Net, then DVD1 should provide more than enough to build a decent working system with common options. 4.4GB maximum. Copying also to debian-cd so that search engines can find this here too. All the best, AndyC -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-project-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

You remove procmail in the correct configuration file to remove the ban.
