Installing Wheezy on a box that is new to me.
I have a computer on which I wish to install Wheezy. I have inquired
locally in Colorado about which flavor of Wheezy I should (previously I
have only ever had occasion to use i386). The box
is a Dell Optiplex GX620 with Pentium 4 HT processor. I have been told
that this processor is Itanium. I am skeptical, but maybe so.
I have trashed the preloaded Windows XP software in attempting to follow
other advice. The box operates very nicely when I boot it with a Knoppix
7.0.5 live DVD, but I want Wheezy. I have good connection to the
internet. I hope to use Jigdo to download a single CD image to boot on
the box and do the main work of getting all the packages via the
internet. But which single CD image to I need to jigdo? Why CD? Because
I have writer that is only CD, not DVD.
TIA,
Paul
