Comments/Problems:
I had some problems because my other network card (the connected to
the net) needed options and the other one was detected but no module
got loaded (it uses de4x5). I finally managed by installing in expert
mode. I had to compile acustom kernel (which i probably would have
done anyway) to get the de4x5 card to work.
Otherwise the install went fine, especially configuring lvm (it was my
first time) was very easy.
