Re: Debian 2.1 CDs?




The official CDs contain main and contrib. Since CheapBytes make
official CDs, that's what they contain. I have downloaded non-US and
non-free, together they are 570 MB so they fill almost an entire CD,
and I originally intended to offer it together with the Debian CDs I
was supposed to get from CheapBytes, except that I'm not getting the
CDs from them for some reason. I don't know what's up with them. Have
other people ordered from them? Have you got your CDs by now? I think
I'm going to order from another place. I'm tired of waiting.

Originally I intended to get the CDs and then post here the details
about them and my address, so people can send me checks for the cost
of the blanks and the shipping and I'd write them CDs. (This has
worked in the past for a mass TriLinux order.. Does anyone remember?
:-) But since I don't have the slink CDs still, just e-mail me if you
want a copy of the non-US & non-free CD. FYI, it also has a mirror of
the gnome-stage-slink area, which contains GTK 1.2, Gnome 1.0,
Enlightenment DR 0.15 and lots of other neat stuff. When I get the
slink CDs I think I'll still do all the checks business.
