Not working on "the installer for sarge" is "my" problem and my fear
since this will definitively delay the release of sarge since we cannot
release without a working installer.

Having to discuss the installer issue again and chosing between d-i and
anaconda would cost time and effort as well.  I doubt it will do Debian
any good, independly of the outcome.

I'm not sure it would mean that, to be honest.  Actually, I even doubt
it very much...

However, I'd love to be proven wrong.
