I'm inherently lazy, and I hate typing. All these solutions work, but
what's wrong with suing to root, typing 'vi /etc/issue', typing '!!clear'
and finishing off with a ':wq' ??
Just goes to show there's more than one way to do it. (I think that may be
trademarked by Larry Wall).

i just tried to make the modules by hand and then install them with
'make modules_install' (instead of using make-kpkg) and none of the

explicitly copies these files to that directory (look in

Looks like you can use the "cp" command with the "--archive" option (see "cp"
man page).
What you need to do is, after you place a linux filesystem on the partition
with "mke2fs",
mount that partition under the generic mount-point directory "/mnt":
mount /dev/hd?? /mnt

Just type "command > lpr". Replace command with the command you want print
the output of. This will send the output to lpr (printer). You can also
look at .xsession-errors (in home dir) and xdm-errors in the /var/log dir,
depending on what you are doing and at what point you get the errors.

This comes up frequently but is being fixed by the new diety.
You have to recycle through the install phase until it's all installed.
Each time it will install more because the dependencies are satisfied.
The current dselect doesn't use dependant order.

Hello. I'm a new debian user who just installed the floppy version of 1.2
to a p75, and I'm now trying to add X11R6. I've installed xbase, xfntbase,
