I can just about manage apt-get update and apt-get upgrade but need my hand held quite a bit. So I want to know how to manage my debian installation so that if quinophex vanished I would not be stuck. Also knowing how to build kernels would be fun.
AOL (except the bit about quinophex).
Further to this, after my experience this evening, I'd like to know common things that go wrong after dist-upgrading, and how to fix them. I don't think I have *ever* managed to dist-upgrade without something getting horribly broken.
