Install latest stable through the base system itself -- that's NO
ADDITIONAL PACKAGES.
Change your /etc/apt/sources.list file to read:
----------------------------------< start >----------------------------------
deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free
deb-src http://http.us.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free
deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US stable/non-US main contrib non-free
----------------------------------< end >----------------------------------
...and run
$ apt-get dist-upgrade
...you'll now be on Woody. Install packages as normal.
If you need to get an offline installation, I believe you'll want to
look at various apt-mirror packages and such. There are no official
ISOs of wood, it's testing.

What part of "Gestalt" don't you understand? There is no K5 cabal

Are these opinions my employer's? Hah! I don't believe them myself!
