| phreqmod | Uh... abrotman said that they were paying $1 a pop for each correct answer over here!!! |
| abrotman | over where ? |
| MTecknology | lunitik: Will you please make this incredibly easy for me and give me a direct link to the most current stable release for an i386 system? |
| phreqmod | ehe j/k |
| abrotman | MTecknology: you already have it |
| lunitik | !installer |
| pickcoder | only $1? |
| abrotman | !d-i |
| asg | pickcoder: abrotman is cheap |
| pickcoder | I was offered $2.50 |
| dpkg | For stable/sarge: http://www.debian.org/releases/sarge/debian-installer/ and the development page for the installer(ISOs for etch/testing) is http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/ d-i is the new generation Debian Installer, the replacement for boot floopies which was last used in woody. If you want to make custom install cds, start with d-i. IRC: oftc.net: #debian-boot. |
| lunitik | !d-i |
| intruder_ | people are so lazy |
| MTecknology | abrotman: so dloading any other CD won't help me? |
| pickcoder | though I was mistaken for someone else.. |
| phreqmod | pickcoder, yeah, cheap bastards, you know this "free software" hippies and all that |
| abrotman | !sarge 2.6.20 |
| dpkg | somebody said sarge 2.6.20 was http://kmuto.jp/debian/d-i/ |
| MTecknology | abrotman: can you explain this to me? I have the most current cd, but I need to dload something else? |
| abrotman | you have the latest stable release installer |
| lunitik | MTecknology: did some hardware fail to work? perhaps abrotman knows that the newer kernel supports what has failed? |
| abrotman | !sarge |
| dpkg | Ten-HUT! Fall in! Sarge is the code name for the current stable Debian release, version 3.1, released on June 6th, 2005. Ask me about <install debian>. Sarge is the biggest lump of free as in freedom software ever released at one time... read the release notes at http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/releasenotes, or the best thing since sliced cheese. |
| abrotman | 1.5 years old |
| phreqmod | just curoius, exactly what hardware is in discussion? |
| asg | phreqmod: teledildonic usb interface |
| abrotman | his NIC doesn't work but he doesn't know what NIC it is |
| pickcoder | broadcom |
| abrotman | those work in sarge |
| phreqmod | Ahhh that. Never managed to get it to work, had to buy the PCMCIA version which isn't nearly as satisfying :( |
| pickcoder | not all of them |
| asg | phreqmod: a little flat, I agree |
| phreqmod | Is the NIC PCI? |
| Azar | asg what version of teledildonic/ ? |
| MTecknology | DAMMIT - Windows won't boot w/ the CD drive attached, and Linux isn't recognizing my hardware I'm going to cry |
| asg | Azar: it's still in testing ... and probably will remain so for a long time |
