Package: Debian GNU/Linux 6.0.6 "Squeeze" - Official i386 CD Binary-1



                               20120929-15:56





This isn't the first time I've tried installing a Linux distro, & once again, I've ended up simply wanting to delete everything relating to Linux & having nothing more to do with it.



I think it's perfectly ridiculous recommending having an internet connection DURING installation, without giving the installer the means to connect, & it's even more ridiculous not being able to connect after installation...



I use a DSL modem connected to a router, searches using either terms in the "help" folder came back negative, trying to connect via the web-browser brought up an error message that a username & password were required for a "DSL router", however, entering the correct parameters only resulted in endlessly being asked to enter the required information & NO connection made.



The link below explains more fully how I feel about Linux distros...

What really pisses me off is I had no problems with Tails, which is based on Debian, unfortunately it's not designed to be installed permanently.



All I'm looking for is a Linux distro that will connect to the internet, with which I can remote control a laptop with windoze on it & visa versa, with my choice of web-browser & Office suite, is that really so much to ask for?????????
