Comments/Problems:

First, kudos! Much better than previous installer betas. There was one
issue, and I of course have an opinion or two.

First, the issue: There was no cdrom entry in fstab when install was
complete. Easy fix, but momentarily confusing.

Opinions:
1. There are three visible Hardware Detection phases. I don't understand
why, and to the uneducated eye, it looks like a problem. If they are
doing different things, then say so in the dialog title, IMO.

2. During partition configuration, show all of the available fields from
the get-go. Admittedly, I didn't read EITHER installation guide prior to
doing the install, but then, I was testing the ability to hand someone a
CD and say GO.  When I used the new partitioning scheme, I didn't see
filesystem type going IN, so when I was coming out of the partition
usage dialog, I didn't see it then, either. I probably made 6 passes
through before it caught my eye. Too much work (and I've been installing
Debian for years, but I assume you want feedback even on your vast
improvements, neh?)

3. Even in the "simple" configuration routine, I want to have the option
to setup a static network interface, even though I've got DHCP running
internally. Even a little countdown from 5, without keypress continue
with DHCP detection, would be fine.

Overall excellent work!

thanks,

.brian

The lack of a cdrom entry in fstab is a known bug in beta 3. It has
since been fixed in the daily builds.
