You sure you aren't thinking of Red Hat?

Johnny stuck up for Debian, and now I'm going to stick up for Ubuntu. I
just downloaded and installed ubuntu-9.10-server-i386.iso

After installation, it's using 733MB of disk space and 18MB of RAM (+/-
buffers/cache).

It's running in runlevel 2. The contents of /etc/rc2.d are README,
S50rsync, S70dns-clean, S70pppd-dns, S99grub-common, S99ondemand, and
S99rc.local

I ran dpkg --get-selections | cut -f 1 > packages_installed. The 336
lines of that file are pasted below. Things I don't see? Bluetooth,
NetworkManager, Avahi.
