I tried progeny rc1 on my laptop.
It's a much easier (newbie friendly - and I don't mean that
derogatorily I like simple installs) installer than
standard debian. The problem for me was it didn't
automatically setup my pcmcia ethernet card. Then when
I went back after to set it up manually I found the
module wasn't present at all (yet it is in debain potato).
So I didn't bother perservering and just installed
potato again. (it's the de600/de620 module for a Dlink
DFE650-TXD card by the way).
Dave.
