yeah, <hrt><hrt><hrt><hrt>....
i guess if you have weird hardware there might be probs but thats
not install; thats configure.
having said that,i have a range of hardware from 66mhz-1.13ghz
laptops,desktops various vendors/components -all have installed fine the
only machine i havent managed to boot debian on is my applepowerbook520
and thats only becyause its internal NIC isnt supported so i cant be
bothered to try.
hugh
