Bug#783124: release-notes: proofreading updates for installer.dbk
Package: release-notes
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
The installing.dbk file still has some worrying gaps - for instance:
> <!-- TODO: Add
>
> Jessie :
>
> * The partition where to install grub can now be choosen
>
> -->
But here is a proofreading patch for the material we've got so far.
