I know this is not the right forum, but I'd be glad if someone could
provide me with a pointer or a hint (preferably by private email to
unburden the list):

I want to install Debian on a test server and for several reasons I
want to use the unstable branch. AFAIK there are only installation
floppies for stable and testing, so I suppose I have to do a minimal
stable/testing install, then edit my /etc/apt/sources.list to point to
unstable and then do 'apt-get dist-upgrade'. Will that be the right
way? Are there any tutorials out there that explain how to install
unstable instead of stable/testing? (I've searched in vain so far.)

Thanks in advance,
Edi.
