Adding tho this thread of remote control, we've looked into this box
and have placed an order for one with an 8 port KVM (e/w cables etc).
The addertec rep. (Tim Conway in NBPT) provided an online demo
for us which was quite impressive.

This looks pretty neat - I haven't used an integrated solution before:

Can anyone think of a mechanism by which I could install Debian from a RH
box?
Far be it for me to give a RTFM answer, but have you checked out the docs
at
http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch-preparing.en.html#s-linux-upgrade?
There exists a number of how-tos on upgrading
Between Randy's and Bill's replies, I think I've figured it out. Please
let me know if anyone sees any holes in it:
1) Log into my RH box.
2) Take the swap partition out of /etc/fstab.
3) Fdisk the swap partition to be type 83, and format it with a real FS.
4) Do a minimal install of Debian on
Assuming it comes up, I've got a minimal Debian install.
It always works that smoothly in my assumptions too. :-) (I assume you're
testing this on a local box just to make sure you don't have to blow $150,
eh?)
I've tried to install GRUB from scratch before, and failed -- and RTFM'ing
From there, you only need to fiddle with the /boot/grub/menu.lst to
make sure it's pointing to the right kernel and boot partition. Double
check that menu.lst -- I've been bitten more than once relying on Debian's
auto-detect-the-kernels when booting from an odd root partition.
Make sure you know all the features your hosting service offers.
For instance, I recently found out my ISP (11) has a spot on the
control panel where you can switch your machine from booting from disk
to booting to a vanilla Debian image (CD? PXE? Terminal Servers? -
their boot-fu is stronger
