Comments/Problems:

--- Initial boot worked ----

Boot problem with Framebuffer. (nVidia Riva TNT2)
The interface does not refresh. When I switch to a console
and I return back to the main window, i need to "erase" the window by 
moving the cursor.

--- Config network ---

[netcfg-static]
I have a red screen once I pressed enter, after I have been displayed the
summary. But the network is ok.

--- Partition hard drives ---

Partitionner displays a NTFS partition as an ext2 partition.....
Autopartitionner lauch, envenif I had previously partitioned my disks by
hand. Then, I am always ask for an autopartition, if I select an other
item. 

--- Install base system ---

Due to the problem with autopatkit, i've runned it sevral times. On my first 
install everything was Ok, but the next times, I had a problem with 
debootstrap. =>

ls: /target/usr/bin/awk: File exists

--- Install boot loader ---

The grub-installer does not remove the old lilo which was installed on the
box.

--- Other --- 

Language sometimes go back to English. I mean, i have to select French
language several times. 

Recurrent problem with autopartkit is very anoying. It prevents the whole 
install system to run automaticaly.


I do not have the time to develop more that that now there is thunder...

Cheers,
