Dear Sirs: I like the idea of the "Debian System" but I'm having trouble installing it. At the moment I'm using SuSE 6.2, but I'd like to try Debian.
I have an "Official 4CD" set, version 2.1r2 (Info-Magic). It would take too much of your time to be soecific about my installation problems, but there is one thing that may be germane. In perusing the accompanying info, I read the file "README.multicd" which refers to the insertion of "CD 2" at a certain time in the installation - I don't know whether it means 'at the start of the installation' or 'at the start of that moment'. I sent the query to the maintainer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, about two weeks ago, but have to date received no answer. I also asked "Why" the 2nd CD was to be used. I'd appreciate an answer, because it might, as I mentioned, 'be germane' to my installation problems. I don't know if you provide a 'live file system' to take a trial run, but I only have one computer, and the constant erasing and replacement of one OS with another just to try them out, is pretty tiresome and daunting, and tho I am retired and have pretty much time, it gets exasperating. In general, I finally got Debian installed to the point where I get X to come up with a mouse using a "/dev/psaux" mouse device definition in the 'xf86config', but I'm at a loss with configuring other devices & using Netscape and a printer. If you are not directly involved, perhaps you can steer me in the right direction. Thank you. Sincerely, David L. Barnett <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
