Comments/Problems:

Trouble free install. network configuration automatically tries DHCP,
would be nice if it asked you to try DHCP or manual - even thou I have
DHCP on the LAN I installed the box with, I have to Go Back and
manually configure the Gateway to a different one to get a direct
route
out to the internet.

I use XFS for my filesystems because its simply better than ext3,
maybe the installer could offer some basic information on each FS

Getting a 2.6 Kernel to work with Sarge is not a simple process, I
either have module problems, or kernel panic's on boot. I have stuck
with the  most
recent 2.4 kernel, this was a breeze to configure, compile and
install. Default kernel has a lot of stuff enabled that I just dont
and wont ever need.


Install logs and other status info is available in /var/log/debian-installer/.
Once you have filled out this report, mail it to submit@bugs.debian.org.

This is asked at lower priority (expert installs). This is on purpose
to minimize the number of questions asked to users.

This probably more belongs to the installer documentation than the
installer itself.

If 2.4 works for you with sarge, I actually see no real reason to
switch to 2.6 unless you need some of its features..:-)

Given that your installation was a complete success, I do as
usual with reports for successful installations: I close the bug..:-)

This does not of course mean you weren't right to report. Knowing the
installations are correct is important for the d-i team.

Many thanks for your time testing the Debian Installer and reporting
your results. Have fun with your new Debian system!
