Woody

[john gennard <joney@clara.co.uk>]

I have used Slink and now use Potato. As I seem to be getting
problems installing KDE on Potato and many people say they
are running Woody successfully, I wonder if I shall go to Woody.

Normally, I install from CD but of course there is none for Woody.
I've just realised that I don't know what it is that makes Slink Slink,
Potato Potato or Woody Woody.  How then can I go to Woody
and how select what packages to upgrade/install?

I have a 56K modem and have to pay line charges. Whilst I don't
mind spending a reasonable time downloading, I've no wish
to be on line for many hours ( the tarball of a kernel takes 70 - 80
minutes which is quite acceptable).

Would someone kindly suggest what options are open to me
and which might be expedient. I have a stand-alone box with basic
hardware - 500MHz CPU, ide drives, cdrom, floppy, sound and 
graphics cards  and modem.	Thanks,	John.
