 Where do I go from here?
Here's my current setup: I have Ubuntu Dapper on hda1 (including a small integral home directory containing mostly configuration files), hda2 is swap, hda3 is my main home partition, now permanently mounted on hda4, which is my new minimalist Debian system. This is the one I use almost all the time now.
It seems to me that I could go in two directions:
1) Get rid of Ubuntu altogether. That would give me a spare partition which I could use for playing about - perhaps even building a Gentoo system. But I should then have to install OpenOffice and the Gimp on Debian. I seldom use either of them but I need to have them available. And as they come trailing clouds of libraries, it would rather spoil my minimalist concept.
2) Keep Ubuntu, maybe install Hardy Heron over it. I wouldn't waste any time personalising this; on the rare occasions when I used it, it would be as out of the box with gnome, oId Uncle Tom Cobley and all. It would be like an Internet cafe, a place you go now and then to use a program that it isn't worth having at home.
Any advice would be welcome.
