LSL (www.lsl.com) has their Tri-Linux CD (Debian 1.3, Slackware 3.2 and Red Hat 4.2) for $2.98. I installed 1.2.5 from the previous version and found it to be pretty complete (stable and contrib, but not non-free). You probably can't beat the price.

I got 1.2.5 from them. The first CD I got was bad (some files including disk images and Packages.gz were "offset") but I was able to get it replaced without too much trouble. -- Carey Evans <*> [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Lies, damn lies, and computer documentation." -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

Re: IConnect Corp Debian any good?
Benedict I am a relative newbie, but I managed to install 1.1 and 1.2 from iConnect CDs. with only a few glitches. These CDs are a little cranky in that you have to guess (or ask, I didn't but should have) how to tell dselect where to find stuff. I gather that you can put symlinks in /tmp to directories on the CD to make things work like dselect expects. You can find the list of debian CD manufacturers on teh web page (www.debian.org). I think when I upgrade, I'll buy my CD from Dwarf. (Dale Scheetz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ) He is a Debian developer whose Flexible Software sells CDs. I think that he will be more careful than many in his setup, so broken CDs should be rare. --David On Wed, 4 Jun 1997, Benedict Chong wrote: > I bought infomagic's devel resource for the debian stuff and > apparently it's broken. > > So I'm looking at getting something from iconnect (www.i-connect.net). > > Are their cdroms any good?

IConnect Corp Debian any good?
I bought infomagic's devel resource for the debian stuff and apparently it's broken. So I'm looking at getting something from iconnect (www.i-connect.net). Are their cdroms any good? Has anyone ordered from them? All I want is a basic debian linux system set up with X and PPP support so that I can download new stuff.
