Re: Debian -VS- RedHat, again?

Thanks for the note about potato, but I am still running slink. I am to new to
Linux and UNIX in general to even attempt to stay at the bleeding edge. When
potato freezes, then I'll update.

I've used alien once or twice before, but thanks for the info. How do you update
the menu manually, though. I've read the docs and such, but it was over my head.
I grew up in a Windows world and am still climbing the learning curve. I have
made great advances since I started working with Linux, but I've still got a
long way to go.

Thanks to everyone on this list who has offered help, either to myself or to
anyone who had similar problems to me. This community of co-operation is what
makes Linux so great.

Cheers,
