newbie battle over debian, redhat or slackware

[Kenny Hitt]

Hi,  everything you need to start the Debian install is on the speakup
sighe.
Once you start the install, your system will contact the Debianservers  to 
get what it needs.
I think Debian has the best package management system, but I 
started with Debian.
