Debian comes with more than 8000 packages.  It also covers more than one
hardware architecture

hi,

    14 CD's that's toooooo much for me...how come 13 cds for a linux distro
when fedora core 2 has 4 cds mandrake 10 has only 3 cds.Is it possible to
skip some cd's so that i can have only the basic working OS and some more
for kernel source.

Regards
sudhar

Sarge was around 10 CDs in June 2003. Dunno how big it might be now.

 It was 14 CDs in May 2004. I downloaded them.
