Re: [PLUG] Debian

Ok, so I'm getting curious about Debian myself.  I've used RedHat and

like a full install CD, then look into this apt upgrade stuff that everyone
is raving about.  I've got cable modem at home and DSL at work, so download
speed shouldn't be an issue.

You can get a network install Debian ISO image from either:

http://people.debian.org/~ieure/netinst/releases/20011227/woody_netinst-20011227-i386.iso

That will allow you to install a minimal Debian distro and download the rest during the installation (or after, with apt-get).
