Just installed Debian on an old machine using these: no _absolute_ show stoppers:
When loading modules: iso-8059- is all that appears for the iso-8059-1 etc. modules Partitioning disks: Initially, I partititoned /dev/hda into /dev/hda1 (root) and /dev/hda2 (swap) and mounted /dev/hdb as /usr This option was also carried through for /dev/hdc meaning that I ended up with /root on /dev/hda1 and /usr on hdc. Only by remounting /dev/hdb could I get a different mount point /var (which is what I wanted). All else was comparatively smooth until I rebooted: I was left with the dreaded LI prompt: I had to use the rescue disk, make a bootdisk, use this to reboot into Debian and _then_ was able to run liloconfig and lilo. The initial lilo run asked me to install an mbr and make /dev/hda? bootable. This is a nasty and could easily catch people out.
