Hello to all. I am new to the Unix/Linux world. I would like to do a network install of Debian across the internet. If someone could help me with this, I would appreciate it.

download the sarge netinstaller ISO....cut cd...boot from cd....follow prompts.....
the core system is from CD then you apt-get the apps etc ...
give it a go when you get stuck post...most times you get a response in a few hours....
theres nto much hard about the new installer but after you get past the main pert of the installer it will ask you what kind of apps you want loaded....

Thanks. Everything went ok. It's just that when I booted from the CD I only had about 3/4 of the screen with a break and the 1/4 at the top. At some promts I could not see the last couple choices, but I got the install to work. I think everything is there.
What I am trying to do now is fix the display. It is too big. I will lk up what I can while at work. Also I want to ck the partitions (/home, /root, /usr, etc) and divid them if need be.
Any help would be appreciated.

Yeah, like GSC said, just download the netinstaller iso and burn to disk and get after it.
The netinstall gives good directions (step-by-step) as the process goes forward. Just be sure you have all your network settings handy, and you know what hardware you have in your box. You should also have some idea what software you want to install along with the base install, if any. After that, you can use apt-get to install other packages.
I personally like to install using the "businesscard.iso" because it gives me the minimum files needed to get a successful network install going, and picks up all the latest system files during the install.
I usually pick up the businesscard.iso image here:
http://cdimage.debian.org/pub/cdimage-t ... 6/current/
Good luck with it, and do let us know how it goes...
