Comments/Problems:

1. Temporary directory and file:
    After installations and base-config, I have a empty directory
/cdrom0 and a file /tmp-Xhack (with one line: read-edid mdetect) under
my root directory.  Are they temporary files for installation?
    I cancelled the step of create unprivileged user step (because I
want to put that user in a group of different name than the username),
is that the reason these temporary file are not deleted?

2. lilo.conf template
    In woody installation, the /etc/lilo.conf is generated from a nice
template with intensive comments.  This templated makes modifying
lilo.conf much easier.  However after this installation the lilo.conf is
just several lines without any comment.  Is it possible to bring the
template with nice comment back?


Thanks for the wonderful work on Debian!

IIRC /tmp-Xhack shouldn't be installed anymore. /cdrom0 is created by discover 
(the hardware autodetection) and is thought as the mount-point for the first 
cdrom. Just delete it.
