Quick notes for those trying to install and setup Drupal on an Debian machine:
For those trying to install #drupal6 in #debain-lenny use synaptic and do a packet force to get #drupal6.16 from backports
**Note in #debain-lenny the default files are not in /var/www/ there in /usr/share/drupal6/
Once installed from #synaptic restart apache then goto (from web browser) localhost/drupal6/install.php
