Various things
Hi there.
I just did my first trial installation of Debian (I'm a former
Slackware user). The network driver module list is very limited. I
could have user SMC Ultra or 3C503 or NE1000 or NE2000 because I have
these cards hanging about, unfortunately non are available. Is there
space for additional modules in installation disks ?
If NFS filesystem is selected would it then be also nice to load all
relevant client stuff, rpc.portmapper etc...
Also I did a mirror of all debian distribution to one spare disk and
found some very minor things. Could some of these be links as they
appear to be same ??
---- snippet of mirror log follows ----
