Comments/Problems:

I used the provided /, /tmp, /usr, /var, and /home scheme using an
encrypted LVM which did an excellent job sizing things. This is my first
foray into the use of encrypted disks and LVM. I feel better having the
disk on my laptop encrypted, and am looking forward to taking advantage
of the flexibility that LVM provides.

I had used 1 GB swap before, but this install gave me about 2.7 GB (I
have 2 GB memory). I imagine this is necessary to provide space for
hibernate. Is the extra bit there in case I want to use tmpfs for /tmp?
I read about using tmpfs for /tmp and am considering it. Thoughts?
Considerations about making this the default in the Debian installer?

I had to install libesd-alsa0 instead of libesd0 so that totem could
make sounds (via esd).

Please find hardware-summary attached. Note that free: stanza is
incorrect--I actually have 2 GB of memory.

Interestingly, the top of Gnucash reports printed to PDF were truncated
until I installed a printer in CUPS, and then the problem disappeared.
Is a CUPS installation default suboptimal?

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!
