Hi Simon

What's a vanilla Debian install?

Install Debian as normal, just don't add any software using dselect or apt.

Then run apt-get update apt-get upgrade to bring the installed system up to a

base system. That's a vanilla Debian install of Debian stable.

The Debian base system is quite usable - the key thing is that it is so easy

to update. Even if you don't go adding lots of software from personal 
preference, simply updating the base system (a vanilla Debian system) gives

you the 'stable' Debian tree with all the core software.


And its also got a nice taste to it too... Is there a mint chocolate chip 
version?  :-)
