Comments/Problems:
Globally the installer by itself was ok but the documentation was not
enough complete. The various modes: linux, linux26, expert, expert26
were not documented. (Google was needed to find my way as the kernel 2.6
was needed for some of the hardware) I wanted to use evms (so if the
google answer was correct I needed expert (expert26 in my case) but I
did not managed to get it. I finally end up with MD+LVM without evms.

To sum up : great job I can appreciate the improvement compare to an 8
months old woody install on nearly the same hardware that was much more
difficult. If the documentation could be completed may be not in detail
but at least to give all the entry point even for advance usage (MD,
LVM, EVMS) that would be perfect.

We are aware that the installation guide still needs work. Work on the 
guide will continue even after Sarge has been released.

Closing your report as the installation was successful. Thanks for 
submitting the report.

Cheers,
