Re: [PLUG] Debian specs?


I have a variety of running systems and burned copies if you're interested.
Debian doesn't list specs because they're either outdated - 'potato', aka
'stable' - 2.2.19, XFree 3.3.6, etc. or they haven't finalized yet -
'woody', aka 'testing' - 2.4.current, 4.1.0-8, Glibc 2.2.4-current, etc.
Woody should freeze and then become stable soon.

Woody and it's more beta brother 'sid' both support ReiserFS and EXT3 on
fsn.hu's CDs, and support for XFS can be had through a set of boot floppies,
and JFFS as well, I'd imagine.
