Please note that there is no substantial difference between beta4 and the
dailies in terms of the installed system, the differences are only in the
installer itself.  Also, beta4 doesn't work very well; I think at this
point it may be broken on all architectures, if memory serves.  You're
better off sticking to the dailies.

You may also want to wait until tomorrow's daily, as it turns out the
sid_d-i dailies for alpha have been off-line for the better part of a
month and I'm not sure of the status of the last build.  The builds should
be happening daily as of tomorrow, however.
