Yes. Just run the installer from a floppy, and when you reach stage of fdisk-ing, delete the last partition, and create a linux swap partition and one or more ext2fs partitions in the space that you will free by deleting the last part'n. Then install Debian into them. Read the installation instructions for more info. -- Arcady Genkin http://www.thpoon.com "'What good is my pity?
