Next time remind me to tell you to use the latest Debian Installer ;) Currently rc3 is recommended http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/ I assume the install you did gets the Woody installer, which always Woodys weak spot, and avoids the last 2 years or so of progress in installing Debian. Still if you don't need mirroring, and don't have "weird hardware" it doesn't make much difference. Although I've never had to fiddle to make X work with the later installers, although I have had to fiddle to make X work as I wanted it to, that is more to do with me being a perfectionist (failed). -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: Encryption...is a powerful defensive weapon for free people.
