Anyway, i am glad lenny is out, i have been waiting for it since last year, and i thought downloading it would be a challenge when the rush comes, The download came in at full speed and the both the text installer and the GUI installer work like a charm.

Did i mention it is not 1 DVD ! the thing is a 5 DVD, But i don’t think it is wise to download them all, Just download the first CD, and when you need a package, let the software get it from the internet for you.

all you need is the first CD or DVD, most packages you will need are there, and whatever is missing the installer can get for you from the internet !

Anyway, i have not yet checked it out fully, when i do, i will update you all.
