Installation

Debian can be installed either directly using CD packages or through net.
I did net installation hence would like to elaborate about it.

1. Get the net installation cd image n write it onto an rw cd.
2. Type linux26 for the 2.6 kernel series or just press enter for the default 2.4 kernel series.i have installe dthe 2.4 kernel because as of now Debian has a lot of support for this family.Any way 2.6 is also good.More abbout kernel later on.
3. It will configure the net and do everything, you just need to follow the instructions.When it asks for harddsik partition, choose Edit Manually ,if your hard disk is totally free.SATA drives have problem ....and so u can forget if urs is one.

to be comtinued ............
