I installed my SN95G5 with very few problems. (During the CD part of the install the network card did not work, once I was running from the disk it was fine.) I'm writing this message on it right now (albeit from the x86 port - I sometimes run amd64 on it as well.) I had to jump through some minor hoops to get xfs working, too. Look at this message for the version of the installer I used: http://lists.debian.org/debian-amd64/2005/02/msg00015.html Take care, Dale -- Dale E.
