hi, Once I get my laptop under control again, I'll want to start working on my server. I've leased some rack space, but it has RedHat on it. I prefer Debian. I'm totally fine installing Debian, however, I've never done it remotely. I was wondering if I could bribe anyone(s) to give me a hand with this. A friend of mine is also trying to get Debian to work on his laptop. He's got the install down, but hasn't managed to get X working yet. Free coffee is about what my budget can handle these days--however, I'm sure I could also figure out some egg nog if someone else wanted to bring the rum. ;) I'm currently reading the tutorials I've found for remote installs and am waiting for debian to be declared safe again post infiltration. My apartment has wifi and a very nice coffee maker. Let me know if you're interested. emma :) -- Emma Jane Hogbin www.xtrinsic.com -- The Toronto Linux Users Group.

You could come over to St. Christopher House at the corner of Dundas & Ossington where we need to figure out the same thing and we could all learn together. We've got a donation of a Netfinity 5500 server that we will be installing Debian on this week. It's in a location we can't always access, so I was planning to boot with Knoppix and then do a debrootstrap install at our leisure over SSH. So, if you or anyone else wants to come around and check out the Linux excitement, this week is probably a good time to check out the program since we're having a Christmas party Wednesday starting at 5:30. -- The Toronto Linux Users Group.
