Does anyone have latest debian CD I will highly appereciate if somebody can guide me
Which version? sarge, etch or sid? Also, how many CDs? The entire distro CD set or just the first setup CD?
Regards, Siddhesh

Hi,
Debian 3.1 = Sarge = Current stable release. And it comes with around 15 Binary CDs. Source can be around 14 CDs. Or you have total 4 DVDs.
[Commercial] You can get it from buylinuxdvd.com at very cheap rate. [/Commercial]
First 3/4 CDs is enough for normal-desktop works.

+update1 and update 2 = 16 cds. Real pain to install and the install did not install Oo and spewed up dependency probs with liblircclient0. Dunno what i did wrong. However upgrading my machine (PCQ sarge DVD) with the cds worked flawlessly. Will check out what is the problem later.

Hmm,
Please give me log for that. I had this problem with etch and I have to fetch things from Unstable to satisfy dependencies.
And if you are using AMD64 - Forget OO.o in stable!

Has anyone tried the dvds of R1 ?. Also i used jfs as the filesystem. Yet another strangeness:
installed debian Sarge on hd0,5 installed grub on hd0 system boots normally, everything fine. Change disk to hd1 (primary slave) change bios boot to ide1 (which means hd1 in grubspeak) grub come up edit root(hdo,4) to (hd1,4) and root=/dev/hda5 to /dev/hdb5 grub does not find the kernel image change hd1 back to hd0 and grub finds kernel image but no initrd. So switch back to ide0 and boot then edit menu.lst to reflect the propsed switch to primary slave. Grubs fails to find kernel image. now edit root(hd1,4) to (hd0,4) and everything works fine. ??????

Never tried jfs for / or /boot (i.e. the boot partition). I guess, it is ok if jfs module is in initrd or built into kernel.

Interesting experiment. I guess, hd0, hd1 (grub speak) is reflective of the order of the boot device in the BIOS.
Under above setup, what does "fdisk -l" output?

cfdisk shows hdb and all partitions. Wonder if it's the bios and sram problem.

Though grub cannot find the kernel or initrd, it's getting-loaded at bootup means that the mobo is pointing properly to the mbr of your partition. It could be a problem of the grub installation.
