What is the significance of the release codes or where would this
information be annotated?
for example: Debian 1.2 to Debian 1.3 is a change from a.out to elf ?
what does the change from Debian 1.3 to Debian 1.3.1
signify?

Is there any way to determine the distribution source of an installed
module ?
Suppose I wanted to maintain a system through dpkg , where is it
reasonable to store files that are not part of the current standard
distribution; but are:
1. a properly defined .deb package,
2. a properly defined
In the file /var/lib/dpkg/status on my system there are several entries
under the heading :
Status: install ok not-installed
What does it mean?
Other status lines that appear seem to make sense:
install ok half-configured #? a dependency has not been
satisfied
install ok installed
I notice now, after a review of hard copy of The Linux Serial HOWTO that

to more rapidly distributing the knowledge one need to be successful in

my 2 cents: If you run under dos the command dir /v/s or dir *.* /v/s
it will return a list of all file on the default disk starting from the default
directory; and this output will include the file attributes. If you where to
pipe
the output to a file you could then edit it as a command file to
1.) is there a log file of the choices make during the installation
process that begins with resc1440.bin execution?
2.) can one do a partial reinstall that will modify some of the choices
previously make by stepping through the install menu?
