Comments/Problems:
I didn't let the installer try to config the network since I needed to set
it up manually anyway.
The only problem I had (which is beyond the purview of d-i) was getting
X to work: I discovered that the nvidia kernel modules are no longer in
Sarge, only in unstable. I suspect this may confuse a lot of new users.
Fortunately the unstable nvidia driver package matches the kernel version
in Sarge.
Despite that, this was the smoothest Debian install I've ever done! Kudos!

Great, so let's close this report as being "yet another successful
install" (tm) ;-)
