Wow, it\u2019s so much easi\u00ader these days! Here are my ran\u00addom notes from the install. I chose the net\u00adwork install option and burned the .iso to a <span class=\"caps\">CD<\/span>. Then I booted from the <span class=\"caps\">CD<\/span> on the boot\u00adload\u00ader (on a Sun Ultra 20, you hold down the <span class=\"caps\">F8<\/span> key while boot\u00ading to get to the load\u00ader). Then it was just a mat\u00adter of pick\u00ading the options.<\/p>\n<p>First option: graph\u00adic\u00adal install\u00ada\u00adtion. It\u2019s much easi\u00ader to work on oth\u00ader things and occa\u00adsion\u00adally glance at the installing sys\u00adtem when there\u2019s a graph\u00adic\u00adal user inter\u00adface. I was\u00adn\u2019t sure what to use for the domain name, since this com\u00adputer will be used inside the home net\u00adwork, so I left it blank for now. I can always change it later. I also picked the easy \u201cone par\u00adti\u00adtion\u201d option as I saw no need for mul\u00adtiple par\u00adti\u00adtions. Then, I just let \u2018er&nbsp;rip.<\/p>\n<p>These days you get a nice list of pre\u00addefined col\u00adlec\u00adtions to install; I chose the graph\u00adic\u00adal desktop envir\u00adon\u00adment (yes, it\u2019s a serv\u00ader that I\u2019ll mostly access via ssh, but why not?), web serv\u00ader, <span class=\"caps\">SQL<\/span> data\u00adbase, ssh serv\u00ader. Then it was time to wait and do oth\u00ader things, like noti\u00adcing how it\u2019s rain\u00ading out\u00adside. Again. April in Van\u00adcouver, sigh.<\/p>\n<p>Some time later\u2026 Debi\u00adan\u2019s installed, and now I\u2019ve decided to try The Debi\u00adan Way to install Word\u00adPress, rather than installing it by hand as I did last time I set up Word\u00adPress on this box. <code>apt-get update<\/code>, fol\u00adlowed by <code>apt-get upgrade<\/code> and <code>apt-get install wordpress<\/code> installs a bunch of stuff into <code>\/usr\/share\/wordpress<\/code>, includ\u00ading a file, <code>wp-config.php<\/code>, which does\u00adn\u2019t appear in the stock Word\u00adPress install\u00ada\u00adtion. Sure enough, it\u2019s a Debi\u00adan-spe\u00adcif\u00adic file. Guess I\u2019d bet\u00adter go and read some doc\u00adu\u00adment\u00ada\u00adtion. I want to set up sep\u00adar\u00adate blogs with sep\u00adar\u00adate domain names, not just sep\u00adar\u00adate sub-domains, and Word\u00adPress <span class=\"caps\">MU<\/span> does\u00adn\u2019t do that by default. It will be inter\u00adest\u00ading to see if the Debi\u00adan ver\u00adsion of Word\u00adPress tackles that configuration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The next stage in the great pro\u00adject to migrate back from Debi\u00adan from OpenSol\u00adar\u00adis: installing Debi\u00adan.
