I just moved to debian last week and all i can see is *AWESOME* I dl'd the floppies and did an install over my dsl line on 2 of my computers so far. Just one hint noone told me until after i discovered it myself. after your up and running use apt-get and not dselect. I've had soooooo many problems with dselect. I'm doing an apt-get upgrade right now. 32/69 packages right now. Just as a warning the current potato install disks kernel seem to be mismatched from the pcmcia modules that are included. If you are installing on a laptop just grap the debian pcmcia modules and use them and you'll have no problem.
