RE: Debian Installer - Problems Partitioning

["Jim and Kelly Younkin" <jimandkelly@younkin.com>]

Thanks Jiann-Ming, but the only reason I am using Sarge is because of
kernel problems when installing Woody.  Is there an option to install
Sarge without the Beta 4 Installer?  Is there an option to install Woody
with the newest kernel?

Help, I seem to be looping.

Jim

I assume you are using Beta 4... take a look at the errata:

  http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/errata

Your best bet is probably to install a minimal Woody and do an 
"apt-get dist-upgrade".  You'd probably want to make your 
/etc/apt/preferences look like:

  Package: *
  Pin: release a=testing
  Pin-Priority: 750
  
  Package: *
  Pin: release a=unstable
  Pin-Priority: 650
  
  Package: *
  Pin: release a=stable
  Pin-Priority: 600
  
  Package: *
  Pin: release a=experimental
  Pin-Priority: 500
