i know that libranet is what got me into debian and i think that it really has it's place in the distro world. i haven't seen that much of a difference, except libranet is a ton easier than straight debian.
hope to see others join in on the forum.
cheers.

I want to pass 2 extra parameters to the kernel during cd boot before installing. I want apm=off and no-hlt instruction. In other distros, I used to type in linux apm=off no-hlt
Can anybody tell me how do I pass this instruction to the kernel at the cd boot.
Also during setup, i will have to set these parameters to the kernel, so I also need the expert mode.

I'll take a guess:
Doesn't that method work with libranet? I guess you've tried it with no success?
To pass params to the kernel, add them to your /boot/grub/menu.lst file in the kernel line, as the scsi params below:
title Libranet GNU/Linux, kernel 2.4.21
root (hd0,8)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.21 root=/dev/hda9 ro hdb=scsi hdc=scsi
savedefault
boot

They have a free version (2.7) and a new version that is much improved and worth the money ($59 US, I think), 2.8.1. It's Debian with a good install, and a good administration utility. Based on testing, but with some unstable packages thrown in, not that they are unstable, just from the "Unstable" branch of debian.
