Following my less than happy time with RH9.0 I decided to install Debian. The result has been a veritable installfest with me having all sorts of problems trying to install Debian and other distros.

The current situation is that, since I have just one PC (laptop), I have created two equal sized linux partions and a common swap on it and installed RH7.3 one one (whcih is where I was before this all started). This way I can try other distros without losing my basic desktop functionality.

Anyway the next step is to try Debian again and I'll report my Debian newbie experiences blow by blow - assuming the Debian community is interested in such things.
