meta-question

[Louis Hinman]

I don't see an administrator to address this question to, so please forgive me 
for addressing it to all and sundry:

I was accustomed some time back to post questions on linus.debian.user 
(http://groups.google.com/group/linux.debian.user/topics).  Recently, I logged 
into this forum and tried to post.

My post was rejected and I was informed I needed to register.  I registered as 
instructed, and now emails sent to  debian-user@lists.debian.org are posted at 
http://groups.google.com/group/linux.debian.user/topics.

However, if I try to respond within a thread where I am the OP, my response 
never makes it into the thread! 

This is kind of confusing.  Can someone clarify for me what I need to do be a 
full-fledged participant in this discussion group?

Thanks  Best Regards,
Lou

partitioning HD for server

[Louis Hinman]

To learn Liunx networking, I am going to set up a web server

To this end, I am installing Debian 5.0 on a Dell Dimension 4100 with a 250 MB 
HD.

On my desktop, I have partitioned my HD as follows:

/root
/swap
/home
/usr/local
/opt

What would be an appropriate partition scheme for my web server?

Thanks  Best Regards,

Lou

debian-505-i386.netinst.iso -- GRUB Error 18

[Louis Hinman]

I just installed the 6/26 update of Debian 5.0 (debian-505-i386-
netinst.iso) on a Dell Dimension 4100.  My installation does not boot
(GRUB Error 18).

I had no problem booting the first release of Debian 5.0.

Can anyone advise me?

Thanks  Best Regards,
