Because I am a user, not a developer, and I've heard that Debian installs 
require lots of points where one must know quite a bit, rather expertly and 
exactly, about the distro, how it works, and/or one must know or have handy 
lots if exacting and specific info about the hardware.

I don't want to be 1/2 way through this and suddenly find I have to take the 
guts apart to find out 'How many cylinders are on /dev/hd1?' or some such 
thing.

I've simply heard that Debian installs are a techno-intensive siege; I'm 
looking for the slot-a-CD and start a video in the other room, listen for 
'BING,'  and your computer is now ready for a few quick NFS how-to-route 
commands. 

If there is a USER-friendly, RTFM-minimized, no-Web-research install of 
Debian, let me know.
