Comments/Problems:

I tried to actually use the 'sid' option when choosing a mirror.
I guess I shouldn't have expected it to work, but perhaps
some text in the dialog to that effect is in order.

When I rebooted, I couldn't use my USB keyboard to "OK" the
'welcome back' dialog. I had to plug it into the PS/2 port.

I continued adding stuff after the base install that exposed
some hardware issues...

The XFree86 hardware detection *almost* worked; it figured
out I have a NEC LCD1700M+NEC, but it got the HorizSync
wrong, which resulted in skipping the 1024x768 mode
and only using 800x600. Any clues on which package that
bug is in?

Mouse configuration was a pain; I did it pretty much manually,
by copying my /etc/gpm.conf from my sid system.

Sound didn't work out-of-the-box; I discovered the sndconfig
package... it figured out how to play a sound, but esd still
wasn't working... I then remembered to update-modules
and add myself to the audio group.



Those are the problems I ran into. FYI, some more context:

I was playing with grub, LVM, and reiserfs tonight,
as well as debian-installer. They all seem to get along reasonably well:

* This machine has been running debian (sid) for a long time.
Tonight's install was on a 2nd IDE disk.

* I tested some of the components of netinst ala:
  - grab netinst.iso above
  - mount it, using losetup
  - set up tftp and dhcp
  - EtherBoot a Sony Vaio laptop.

That way, I was able to confirm that the 2003-11-19 build is a lot
closer to the Chickenrun[1] than the 9 Nov beta release, just from
the early stages of the install, without modifying my disks at all.

The instructions in
  http://wiki.debian.net/index.cgi?DebianInstallerMknbi
were pretty good; I tweaked them just a bit. (Wiki docs
are great!).

found from http://www.debian.org/News/weekly/2003/46/

* The first time I actually burned netinst.iso to CD, I got errors
from gtoaster. I tried to use the CD anyway, in case the errors were
spurious. They weren't. The CD was bad. But the debian installer
was fairly robust; it didn't lock up or crash; the diagnostics
it gave when it couldn't read files were pretty reasonable. After
5 or 6 of them, I got the hint that the CD was bad and burned
another one (using cdrecord). Then it worked much better ;-)


* I'm pleased to see LVM and reiserfs support. I started by
reading the LVM-HowTo
  http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/ and using my existing sid
installation to set up a volume group and filesystems to use for my
new /home and /usr. I chickened out when it came to putting / on LVM,
so I didn't really use the LVM configuration installer component.  I
did this install onto 2 partitions: an ext2 /boot and reiserfs /.
Then, after the base install was done, I moved /home and /usr over to
the LVM filesystems (using tar/cpio/etc.). Seems to work now. I intend
to move /var likewise.

* I had some fun with grub too. I didn't use the grub support in the
installer; I installed grub in my sid system, and configured it to
boot from the 2nd disk (that tooks some work: grub complained that
(hd1,0) didn't exist until I got the BIOS to properly recognize the
disk. I hadn't bothered to do that when I put the disk in the
machine.)

* I like the way popularity-contest is integrated into the install,
though I'd rather send just one report a month or one a quarter
than one per week.

It took me a while to figure out how to file this report; it wasn't
until I found a bunch of bugs files against the installation-reports
package that I knew what was going on; in future release announcements
and such, please link directly to

Because there is already an entry for this device in pci.lst and the
submitter has not responded to my query for more info, I'm closing this
report now. pci.lst will stay as it is until someone provides more info.
