My Potato Stories...

In reply to the request, here's my succes stories with potato/frozen...
I've been using potato on my gateway machine for a long time, this was
done by an 'apt-get dist-upgrade' from a slink machine. This went mostly
without problems back then (4 months ago or so). Since then i've been
using my Slink cd-set (r0) to install (and then upgrade to potato via
apt-get ftp/http) about 4 or 5 other machines, al without problems.
Next I downloaded the potato test2 cd-images for i386 (3cd set). I've
installed 1 system (+1 vmware to test it) using this cd-set. I was very
happy with the new features in the installer that I hadn't seen because
i'd been upgrading old slinks first.
I didn't encounter any problems related to potato while installing it on
the vmware system and on a p75 proxy/gateway machine.
On 2 or 3 systems I later installed Helix-Gnome as a replacement of
standard gnome. This all went without problems (even though they say you
need woody)
My own gateway machine is even at woody, and I haven't had any problems
yet. (Just run apt-get update/upgrade daily...)
There you go... Keep up the good work... Debian is the best distro out
there
I'm not using any advanced or complicated hardware, so my systems can be
considered quite generic (Vmware is very generic hardware) and the other
machines are:
Asus with P120, IDE, NCR Scsi, Yamaha SCSI writer, SCSI CDROM, Kabelmodem
Asus with K6-2 300, NCR Scsi, DVD-ROM, Plextor CD, IBM Scsi Disks, RivaTNT
ess-solo sound (using alsa-drivers, kernel driver gives beeps/cracks)
