I don't think anyboday said Ubunti == Debian. I know I sure didn't,
that's why I have Debian 4.0 Etch installed - a pre-release to be exact
- and boot into it first. If I want to run Ubuntu for some reason, then
I also have that installed. In this case I have Debian
soon-to-be-stable Etch for no-headache day-to-day usage and Ubuntu
Edgy-upgraded-to-Feisty for a peek into the future.

Just my thoughts on a day that I wish I'd stayed in bed...

Regards, Myles
