Well, there are better ways of getting people's attention than shouting "YOU SUCK" then whispering "all right, its not so bad, I just need some help." Why don't you try using the new debian-installer (or if that is what you're using, the old version). -- -johann koenig
Funny you mention that. Because yesterday i posted the same message and didnt get any replies. So i thought i'd try a different approach.. aka 'debian sucks' and see if that worked. And it seems to have worked since i've gotten several replies now within an hour of posting it ;) I was hoping the debian supporters would read the email because of that line. Seems like there's no better way of really getting someones attention then insulting their chosen OS :)
anyhow, thanks for the advice from everyone. I'll try the upgrade route through woody and see if that works. Ian
