Well, its only a fonts deb, I think (since I can't see the subject when
I reply to an email [comes with using Mutt on a terminal]). As long at
the CD itself passed MD5 (after you downloaded it before you burned it).
Once you get things installed, you can change /etc/apt/sources.list to
just point to the debian archives and not use the CD.
Also, on Debian, you don't need to use ms fonts; there's the free
bitstream-vera.
