This page is about howto put debian woody on a Compaq Presario 1525 notebook. So why make an effort to make woody run on my notebook ?
It is quit simple, it is because I want a very stable system and a setup that I can bring with me to present to windows users and say; "look at this and what it does and can do!"
I run Debian woody with kernel 2.6.2 and vmware for development. Why run Debian?? well one thing realy rules and that is apt-get !! That is mustly why and because it is very configurable (stable, testing, unstable, experimental)!
