well, it's rare to see people like Sukrit who still prefer the manual method of configuration.. Actually I used to think that I'm a stupid imitating alone that "I prefer configuring manually." but seeing the message of sukrit, it brings delight.. Mr. Sukrit, I'm a resident is East Delhi. I'm in need of Debian 3.0 r1. Could you please help me know how I could get the complete set..
