Install OS

I installed Debian 5 using

ftp://ftp.heanet.ie/pub/debian-cd/current/i386/iso-cd/debian-504-i386-netinst.iso

I ran throught the default options, setting timezone as appropriate. To install on the HP/Compaq machines with the Intel 82567LM (e1000e) driver, I had to ues a USB networking interface.

Select only 'standard system' for the software selection prompt
