Well I was gonna PM ronny with this, but I need more posts before i can PM, so guess I'll just have to look like total noob in front of everyone anyways, here it is:


I was looking to use your guide to making a perfect world server.
I simply can't get started on it because I don't understand this Debian thing. I've never seen or heard of it before :S

So, I googled Debian 5.x netinstall, clicked first result. then I scrolled down to downloads..but there are so many options for download, which one do I click:
alpha, amd64,...? I really don't know

Then secondly, once I know which to download,
I need to put this onto a CD, right?
Then how do I boot my pc from a CD o.o

I don't know...as you can see I'm new to this server stuff :p
I mean I've coded before, but nothing like this, only ever done coding for websites and games -.-'

It would be great if you could help me out on anything here

Thanks

So, any help here?

First of all I would like to kindly let you know people don't like getting PMed for help here; so it is better to post in an existing thread if one exists on topic, or create a new one. Just so you know once you're able to PM.

No question is too n00b, and wont make you look bad man; we all have to start somewhere:

aiight more back to topic:

Debain is a distribution of Linux, you can really go with any one you like the best. Personally my recommendation is Ubuntu Server, Ubuntu is Debian based; and is an excellent OS. You can download that here:



The link I provided is for 32-bit Ubuntu Server, it is in ISO format.

Now, you have two options (after you've downloaded the server OS). You can burn it to an optical disc, for use on a dedicated machine, or you can use something like VMware or VBox and simply 'mount' the ISO image, and install the OS as a 'guest system' in VMware or VBox.

this not ubuntu forums :ehh:

well no, these are forums for server development, and someone here gave the files for this ubuntu server to work with this guide on making pw server. So I think it goes in this thread.

I just thought that someone here would know what the problem is as I know that others use ubuntu

so can anyone help?

:blushing:

have you done
apt-get update
yet?

You might still only have the basic list of packages that come with the install and not other lists yet, as apt-get is auto resolving

yes I gave the command apt-get update .-.
