Re: [Scottish] new web site brain storming
Hey, Yeah let us know how it goes. Would be pretty cool if you could use slackware to install everything easily and get everything working, then switch over to debian for downloading other software. Then again i suppose if you've got everything working with another distro why switch? mmm... Still would be cool to finally have debian running well for me!
