Comments/Problems:

Note 0:

     Thanks for putting 2.4 back on the CD.

Note 1:

     It still asks for the "Linux floppy" driver module (twice) at the
     "Detect Network hardware" phase and the "Detect hardware"
     (looking for hard disks) phase.  (See Bug#261463)

Note 2:

     Manual network configuration still doesn't work! (See
     Bug#261460: "Non-DHCP network config step of d-i is broken")
     I continued using DHCP.

Note 3:

     main menu step "partition hard drives" fails. Nothing happens and
     it keeps returning to "partition hard drives"
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.

You can do this yourself too, you know...
Just mail to <bugnumber>-done@bugs.debian.org with a suitable subject and 
an explanation in the body of the mail.

Cheers,
FJP
