Hi, all.  I've got a machine I want to install Debian on.  So far, so 
good.  Now the bad news: it's in California, at a hosting service.  It's 
running RH (Fedora).  I can get the hosting service to install Debian 
for me, but it'll cost me $150.  Can anyone think of a mechanism by 
which I could install Debian from a RH box?

Thanks...

P.S.  Two cents' worth (har) re: credit unions: DCU.  I love 'em.  And 
they're getting big!  That, and the fact that no small number of people 
on this list had them as their credit union back when the "digital" 
meant DEC.  Decent web interface, great fees/rates, awesome about giving 
back the $25 bounce fee (not that I have -ever- bounced a check), and 
just generally nice.  My house got flooded this spring 
(http://flyingtoasters.net/gallery/album17/dscn1159), and, since we're 
in a flood plane, we had flood insurance, paid via proxy by DCU.  Or so 
we thought: turned out that DCU hadn't paid the insurance, and we 
weren't insured.  Uh-oh.  EXCEPT that they took full responsibility, and 
made sure that we were able to get in touch with the people who (yeah, 
this sounds weird) insure them against not being insured.  So it all 
turned out fine in the end.  I have to wonder how long it would have 
taken us to get Fleet to say, "Our bad."
