Comments/Problems:
I used this image:
http://cdimage.debian.org/pub/cdimage-testing/daily/i386/20040828/sarge-i386-businesscard.iso
1720: kick off
1722: booting with expert26
1725: initial selections seem ok; found correct network card module
(e1000)
1726: DHCPing for network config
1728: manually set up the partitions (one big ext3 one)
1729: installing the base system from ftp.uk.debian.org
1736: 18% done
1738: eek! errors were encountered while processing:
exim4-daemon-light
at
exim4
exim4-config
mailx
exim4-base
I tried continuing, but didn't get any further. Tried the whole thing
again, but to no avail. Then used the 20040826 businesscard ISO, which
worked fine.
