Hi all,
I have been a longtime user of RedHat and installed Debian 2.2r2 today. I
have a few queries-

 1. I have a dial-up connection so its not possible for me to d/l huge
binaries. I have the RHL 7 cd, n it has XFree86 4.0.1.rpm, can i use this 2
install Xf 4.0.1 on my debian box ?

 2. I have a sources for kernel 2.4.2, can i safely compile them on debian?

thanx
-Ankit
