yes to the language/country/keyboard/network questions - but no splash screen or other opportunity to select an install modeNo language/country/keyboard/network questions? Loading custom modules is proposed only in expert mode. *That* is on purpose..:-) Rescue mode is to be chosen at boot time, by choosing a special entry in the boot menu.
Understood. I've always thought that grub=PITA. grub2 looks like PITA in spades. Sigh :-(2. It seems to install grub2, without giving the opportunity to install grub- legacy. It seems to do all the right things, and the installed system boots properly.I don't think we really want to still suppor tgrub-legavy during installation. Supporting grub2 has already been a suffisiant PITA..:-)
Might make things pretty difficult for folks with tricky configurations (like mine) - raid, xen, etc. Between using volume UUIDs to identify disks, and the switch to grub2, with its completely new configuration model, squeeze is starting to look like a particularly tricky upgrade from Lenny.
