Well, I have a mac IIci with 24 Meg RAM, 1.2 Gbyte SCSI HD, ext SONY CD-ROM, ext Global Village modem 33.6 baud, , no ethernet card. I have the slink version of the software and I have all the documentation that comes with that. I also have bought and read the paperback Debian GNU/Linux Guide and I have Running Linux by O'Reilly. I can't get this bad boy to work. I have repeatedly tried to do the initial install with dbootstrap after partitioning the HD as described in the Guide from the web site. I have seen errors such as 'segmentation fault' at just about each step, without any real rhyme or reason. If it happens, I reboot and then will mysteriously get past that point and get a freeze at another point. Anyway, I was able to load it once, but then when I rebooted and entered my password I kept getting an error: INIT: respawing and then I had to wait 5 minutes before the anything else. If I waited, the same error would occur repeatedly. Is there some other documentation that I need to look at? I am new to Linux as if you didn't guess. I would appreciate any guidance to wards getting this system up and running. Thanks, Michael
