[plug] moving to Debian

[Jeff]

Easiest way to install Debian Woody is to use the Netinstall CD. Take a
long time to download but its Woody all the way.

Sorry about the bad language

    I first installed Linux as a temporary solution until the Gnu Herd was

    the Debian 3.0 release. I was planning to switch from redhat & mandrake
    when debian 3.0 is released. Should I give up waiting and install a woody
    snapshot?
      Is there a better approach than just grabbing the latest snapshot?
    Perhaps some un-official release which has had more testing as a set?
    My last experience with installing Debian from scratch was not pleasant,
    as bugs in the install process can be particularly frustrating.
      I will promise to keep a detailed log of any problems, and report to the
    list.
      Also, what is the essential pre-install reading for an experienced Linux
    user who knows nothing of Debian?  What is special about Debian, other
    than the package management?
      Is there a technical users overview of distro-specific things like
    process/service management, FS structure ?
    
    hoping to soon be a debianite,
    Michael.
