Sarge is the codename for the Debian GNU/Linux 3.1 distribution which went from testing to stable on June 6th 2005. The previous stable release was Woody.

It is named after the Sarge character from the animated film Toy Story.

Sarge can be installed using the Debian-Installer, a new and easier installation routine, with integrated hardware detection and X configuration. Post configuration has also been made easier, through integration of the debconf tool into most of the existing packages.

Main packages

Packages in the distribution include:

Hardware architectures

At the moment of release, sarge was available for 11 architectures, the same as which woody was available for:

On June 9th 2005, three days after Sarge's release, the port of Sarge to AMD64 architecture was also declared stable. This was the first release of Debian on AMD64, although it is an unofficial one.
