Hello Linraders,

As Josh recomended, I would install the Debian Sarge branch trough new 
RC-3 debian installer. I definitely do not recomend installing Woody, 
the 3.0 release, because the software is very old. I prefer the 
"netinst" CD of around 100 MB. It is nice to install only the base 
sistem, without X window if you do not need it (For Linrad you do not). 
Then, you can install the needed packages from the net (nasm, 
svgalib,...)with a simple "apt-get install package".  If you are lucky, 
your video card will be suported by SVGALIB 1.4.3, if not, you have to 
download and manually compile SVGALIG 1.9.x. But that will come later, 
first install the OS and tell us how it was.

We are waiting for your news and ready to help you.
Welcome to Debian and Linrad!

Ramiro, EA1ABZ.
