Going to install testing: should I use sarge or woody installer?
Hi ,
I'm going to install a new machine on Debian, and I will surely follow
testing, as I've been used to for years.
Nevertheless, installing a new machine with woody today, just to upgrade
it to testing (and I do want a 2.6 linux kernel!) looks cumbersome.
The question is : should I nevertheless proceed with a woody
installation CD , manually change my sources.list and apt-get
dist-upgrade at will ?
Or should I use the sarge-rc1 CD install ?
Related question : if I use sarge-rc1 to install, will apt get
automatically configured to follow testing ?
Or, when sarge will become stable, would I have to take care of changing
my apt config if there happened a requirement to stick to stable afterwards?
I realize my questions may look awkward but I simply can't wait for
sarge to be "stable" unless it happens whithin the next 2 weeks.
Thanks in advance!
Thierry
