I considered reviewing Debian for this article. I downloaded a copy of Debian 3.0r2, making sure to get the disk with the 2.4 kernel. Everything you've heard about Debian being difficult to install? It's not totally true, but it's pretty close. I really wanted to try Debian, though, if only to use the vaunted apt-get system. I'd tried apt-rpm on a previous Red Hat installation, and it was great. Since Debian was turning out to be too difficult to put together, I decided to look for a debian-based distro.

>You now get told to remove your installation disk and reboot.
As far as I remember, we are not told to remove it on 2.7 Classic. It just says 'reboot' but does no harm while being inserted.
Maybe the text changed for 2.8?
I would have that clarified with Libranet.
I total agree on the speed and stability, ease of installation and the rational xadmin menu and believe this review will win Libranet many deserved new users.
