Hello Doug, Thanks very much for going through the links! I've fixed most of the errors and added some comments to your suggestions.

As the working version is on alioth, I have changed the link to there. (A list of archs/langs for the official version is available from http://www.debian.org/releases/sarge/installmanual) > 2.6.

I'm not very happy with that paragraph anyway; it will probably be changed to just have a general link. > 6.3.4.3.

I've also included the URL you suggested with the following text: This <ulink url="&url-unix-faq;">list of Unix FAQs</ulink> contains a number of UseNet documents which provide a nice historical reference. > B.5.

Hmm. There were a lot of man pages in txt format included on the Woody installation CDs, depending on architecture. These have now been dropped because the installer has it's own partitioning tool. I've deleted all references to the .txt files. > B.5.
