I wanted to make the switch from lilo to grub, and I was wondering what the
proper procedure is. It could be as easy as apt-get install grub could it?
Mostly it is. You'll want to get grub from woody
Does anyone know how one would go about creating a debian
rescue cd? Something bootable, with enough utilities on it
to really be able to fix a system. A custom made ramdisk
would be perfect. I've been trying to figure out how to do
this, with no luck. Any hints or pointers would be great.
Thanks.
Help.
I am running Debian 2.2, with upgrade to Woody from debian.org via
FTP.
I have been running well for over 5 months without reboot(!) or
maintenance.
I went to fetch a new package, and my system decided it wanted to get 108
MB of updates. It failed on a bunch of them, I tried again, and

I second that. Unfortunatelly sid's or woody's version of grub

Hey,
I'm a little embarrassed. I've installed debian around 50 times, but
somehow I can't do it on this computer. I've started the installer (off

I want DRI for my Voodoo3 card. But I'm confused.
Somewhere I read DRI is included in XFree86 4.0.1.
Somewhere else I read it's in the 2.4. kernel.
And in /var/log/XFree.0.log I found the line:
