Comments/Problems:
No CDrom detected. Must be the JMicron IDE controller. I don't understand this is still not fixed. It is a serious bug: Debian is incompatible with all P965-chipset motherboards now.
I did not work around the Cdrom this time, but previously my network card was not recognized either (Realtek RTL8186).
As for the Graphical Installer: I have never seen it. Not on any PC, not with any version of 'testing'. All I get is the blue-white-and-red text based script. Same with this RC1.
