Subject: Debian GNU/Linux installation

Debian  is  the only  truly  'free'  Linux distribution,  with  strict
software policy guidelines and a human maintainer behind every package
it distributes. It  is funded and run  by 900 volunteers all  over the
world,  and is  well-known for  its ease  of maintenance  and security
consciousness.

The Setup, however, can be overwhelming for a non-technical user, even
though it is of immense help to the expert, since he can customise his
system to the fullest. I myself took  some time before I could install
Woody  successfully. The install-documentation  is somewhat  terse and
formal. This is a step-by-step guide  to have a smooth installation of
Debian GNU/Linux Woody r3.0 from its original CD set.

Sub : Re-initialise /etc/inittab                     LOST #043

To re-initialise changes made to /etc/inittab without the need
to reboot, do: '#init q'
Init is the last step of the kernel boot sequence. "q" option
re-examines and re-initialises /etc/inittab.
