Dear friends: Based on what I have learned tonight about Debian, I am not certain yet which option I will choose: Etch or Sarge, testing or stable.
Here is my choice: Choose Sarge (STABLE) which can only be updated with a few specialized apt-get sources such as apt.get.org or backports.org OR Choose Etch (TESTING) and get the latest releases until Etch becomes stable. I do have one more question about Etch: To install it, I have downloaded the 100 MB + net install ISO file. What happens when Etch reaches STABLE? Will I be able to continue downloading TESTING packages. Or is this net install and the "testing" distro really strictly an ETCH testing distro. That is, when Etch becomes stable, can I just continue downloading and upgrading packages in testing (since I will be in testing) or will I have to start all over again? Would appreciate your clarification. Thank you. Benjamin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
