The installation kernel *only* has to support your network card, your disks and a simple text mode display. After all, one of the first things you're going to have to do when your fresh system boots up is compile a new kernel ..... so don't necessarily judge which Debian flavour to use by the installation kernel alone. -- AJS delta echo bravo six four at earthshod dot co dot uk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
