Comments/Problems:
I downloaded the Sarge Base Install CD, which as the name says, includes
the base of Debian within the CD. I could not boot this disk -not that
my BIOS doesn't support it, but the disk didn't appear to be
bootable-, so I wrote the floppy images "boot", "root" and
"cd-drivers" contained on this disk, and booted from these. The CD-ROM
was detected OK, but I chose the "testing" -options were "stable",
"testing" and "unstable"- distribution in the installation, and when
it came to installing the Debian Base, I got an error like so:
"Couldn't download libcrypt7", while "Validating libgcc1.[error
window hiding rest of line]". This exits me from instaling the Debian
Base, to the main Debian Installation Menu. I rebooted and chose the
same options, without detecting the CD-ROM, and it installed fine. If
this is because of the difference between the "testing" distro, at the
time, and Sarge, I suggest reminding the user of so.
Option to choose which kernel to install?
