Re: on Debian/Alpha

["James D. Freels" <freelsjd ornl gov>]

Have you loooked at www.debian.org.  There you will find a "Debian on 
CD" link, "Port Specific Pages" with further links to Alpha and it's 
sublinks.  You could lie about "Official CD" status and get the iso 
images yourself.  Also, there are debian packages that can create CD 
images from local/remote archieves.  Personally, I don't do CD 
installs, but use net installs and net updates.  Remember, once you 
have an initial install, updates come easy with Debian.  There really 
is no need for a CD (see apt-get).  It is a matter if getting used to a 
superior technology.
