It's about that time again...
Sep. 23rd, 2003 08:07 pmTime, that is, for my bi-annual voyage of discovery with respect to the question "I wonder if Debian is usable yet?"
It definitely seems to be every two years or so that I decide it's time I moved away from Red Hat and toward Debian. For reasons that could largely be illustrated by pointing out their TLDs. And every couple of years, I decide that I just can't get the hang of Debian and I stumble gratefully back into the soothing embrace of the distribution I'm familiar with.
Anyway, I think it's time to play with Debian again. I've moved all the files from my laptop to various corners of my workstation hard drive (which was once Stupidly Large and now appears to be Remarkably Full - how time flies). Once I've posted this, I shall be rebooting and starting some kind of install procedure - I just hope it's a bit friendlier now than it was two years ago.
Hopefully my next post will be from a Debian system on this laptop... but I can't help feeling reassured by remembering that there's a functioning Red Hat system in the spare room should this get a bit tricky. Like it usually does. :)
