Newbie installation query
I am a former RedHat user and now want to try out Debian. I have dabbled in
debian before but have always messed up, usually in the installation
(using dselect). Plus, I only got kde 2.2 even after I updated the woody
install. This time I decided I would rough it out :).
After reading up on the net, I did just a base install of woody, then ran
the go-woody script so that I would be able to download and use more
recent software (like kde 3.1.4 as in knoppix.).
I now have a base install of testing (I think). I have cable internet (but
a limited download allowance) and would like to have a proper debian
system with X window system and kde. What is the way to go ? should I
fire up tasksel and let the system download the software ? Or should I go
with apt-get'ing the individual softwares and let apt manage the
dependencies ?
regards,
Sharukh.
