i agree, I'm using Debian 3.0, and I ve got Libranet 2.0 installed also. Libranet effectivly IS Debian 3.0 "Woody". It's an easy Linux install; that means it's NOT a series of mouse clicks like Windows- you actually have to provide some input about your machine i.e. monitor info, sound card info, video card info, etc, etc. I have installed Libranet 2.0, including partitioning and setting up an internet connection, in less than an hour. I'm also a long-time Debian user, so if your new to Linux, I would expec to double that time at least. Libranet comes with a whole bunch of goodies, the best of which is "adminmenu". This allows you to do administrative duties, as root, that would be time consuming in a very timely manner. You csan re-compile the kernel, setup a CD-burner, or a printer all through adminmenu- it's a really nice little app.
As to installation, I'd do a minimal install, it's easy to add things afterward from adminmenu, and that way, you'll be up and running quickly.
