I'm trying to start my server up again after leaving it down for a few months. I figured I may as well get all the updates I can... but apparently Debian 5 has enough differences that its giving me a hard time. I'm having the full range of issues from IP addressing changing on its own, to standard applications im used to simply not being installed.

I would go back to release 4, but the software install stage where it downloads everything from a mirror simply doesn't work... it just sits at 5% all day.

Anyone see this, and know what my options are? The wiki is too outdated to be used with Debian 5, and Debian 4 just isn't playing nice anymore. Some other issues I had with 5 was SVN not being installed, and then the SVN checkout isn't working right, I just get a bunch of folders with files called root, repository things like that, but no actual files that should be in the quest, and database folder.

Thank you,
