This is a really quick report, I'll dig into more a bit later once I get
Debian GNU/Linux installed, but this one seemed to be worthy of note.
Nowhere in this document is anything about actually getting Debian GNU/Linux
covered.  If this is intended to be something that's distributed only with
Debian, then it would make sense, but I would place this document as one of
the prime locations for new users to Debian.  I'd make question 1.5 into
"How do I get Debian GNU/Linux?" and have a short section pointing to the
rest of the documentation on that topic (which, while easy to find, is not
referenced here).

The bug you filed against the boot-floppies package has been closed in

Please let us know if you still have the problem, even in the newest
version.  

Thank you for helping Debian build a better installation systenm.

 boot-floppies (2.2.18) stable; urgency=low
 .
   * build with Debian 2.2r1 plus updates (closes: Bug#77459)
   * Adam Di Carlo:
     - i386 and sparc use kernel 2.2.18pre21
       (closes: Bug#77425)
     - Makefiles: clean is a bit cleaner
     - release.sh (i386): also put kernel configs in TOP/<flavor> (hey,
       it's a small file); don't leave stranded release/kernel-config file,
       put it in the bf-common tarball
     - rootdisk.sh: add pcd0 device mknod (closes: Bug#74322), which
       MAKEDEV doesn't know about; add gscd and cm206cd devices; remove
       some hacks on device creation due to bugs fixed in MAKEDEV
     - dbootstrap: quiet bootarg makes more things shut up; disable the
       check for root filesystem being on extended partition while LILO is
       going on the MBR, because LILO supports this now (closes: Bug#64823);
       add new fullscreen_execlog utility function
     - debian/control: add Build-Depends and Build-Depends-Indep
       (closes: Bug#70387); remove required package from depends
     - documentation: fix links to dselect-beginner (closes: Bug#72870);
       add a section in the first chapter talking about where to get Debian
       (closes: Bug#71532); other corrections (closes: Bug#70871); fix
       linux history link (closes: Bug#76408); enable Polish and Russian
       documentation now that newer debiandoc-sgml is in Potato; give
       example TFTP file name on SPARC (closes: Bug#40775); mention
       problems with booting from IPX (closes: Bug#49172); when reporting
       bugs on i386, you must report the flavor
   * Josip Rodin:
     - documentation: update non-US package numbers
   * Eric VanBuggenhaut: French updates
   * Marcin Owsiany <porridge@pandora.info.bielsko.pl>:
     - Polish updates
     - documentation/doc-check script added to help translators stay
       up-to-date
     - LANGUAGE_CHOOSER integration (closes: Bug#31865) detailed
       descriptions follow
 .
       NOTE: i18n integration is not quite complete, but it is very very
             close; it has specifically been kept out of the mainline
             version due to some bugs which are expected to be fixed shortly
 .
     - moved bf-utf from its module to utilities, modified relevant files
       accordingly
     - Makefile: added conditional build time depends on libpng2-dev
       and libpopt-dev
     - rootdisk.sh: uses LANGUAGE_CHOOSER for compact and idepci i386 flavors,
       in which case it: uses more blocks, adds  fb0 ptyp ptyq ptyr ptys
       devices, includes a font for bterm, includes a wrapper 'udbootstrap'
       and modifies inittab accordingly, includes libutf8_plug.so, bterm,
       all messages files, lc-enabled dbootstrap
       removed redundand '$' from awk invocations
     - utilities/bogl/Makefile: added bterm's font reduction to build process
     - utilitise/dbootstrap/Makefile: added rules necessary for creation of
       'dbootstrap-lc' - a language-chooser enabled dbootstrap, added configure
       runs to generation of libnewt and libslang
     - utilities/dbootstrap/po/Makefile: build both normal and utf messages
       files by default
     - added removal of necessary files to clean rules
   * Gleydson Mazioli da Silva: Portuguese updates
