Hi t
Yes, RTFM, but these guys will try to help you if you make that
effort.
BUT to help you, there is a strong need for you to carefully
describe your hardware and software: motherboard, CPU, RAM, disk
interface, amount of disk, video card, video card memory size,
modem, Debian distribution version, where you are getting your
distribution, (if a CD, who the vendor is, or if from a web site,
perhaps from whence you are down loading)
As important as the hardware information, you should be quite
specific about the problems you are experiencing. Error messages
would be a big help.
You will find this list to be thick with really good experts who
are willing to help, given the needed information!
Lots of luck,
