Originally posted by greythorne im going to test debian etch but i saw there 14 cd images so which one i should d/l btw im going to d/l using jigdo?
The 14 CD images are based on Sarge and you are wanting Etch which is the testing branch. You will want to use the Debian Net Installer to get that version.
Originally posted by greythorne ok but may be i want to do it this way get the sarge then update it to etch, im not quite comfortable with net install for debian.
thank you.
I think that if you try you will not get disappointed. Maybe you solved the stuff as by now, but I have also got testing on one of my machines; and did it that way: simply downloading the image for a base installation, and later upgrading thru the internet.
