[plug] 2.4.20 on Sarge iso

Well if the sarge installer becomes the main one I'm choosing another
distro.

What a complete piece of %##$(* 

You really only have to try to partition a hd and the installing the
base system fails.

And all I want is a system install with 2.4.20 or higher without
pratting around with different apt-sources. Perhaps I will try Bonzai
Linux now. I wonder if I can install it in English.

regards,

Chris
