Has a bug been filed? It seems some stings seem to be of different length then they used to be which causes some input widgets to be garbled and difficult to navigate through as real strings get overwritten - This is only from memory - Its a couple of hours since the install - I will retry tomorrow morning to give an exact description - I was able to navigate through everything - but i am a long term debian user and have probably seen the installer a couple of hundret times and know whats going on. But the garbled output looks like completely broken and unusable and should be fixed for woody ASAP as this will be a major issue in "the papers" about the new debian release.
