Installer beta



Hi,

Major newbie here, so please forgive lack of everything.

Been running debian for about a year, mostly for VMWare with several
Windoze clients.  The install back then took about two days.  This one
took about one hour.  Much better.

Just one suggesting from a newbie point of view.  It would be nice to
have the option when you choose the drive to install to to have the
installer create a default partitioning scheme so you won't lose a lot
of new-to-Linux users at that stage.

I realize that the actual partitioning scheme could be argued for
years, but a default config that would work 80% of the time, that a
new use could just choose to accept would be one less step they would
have to possibly be discouraged by.

Just my 2 cents.
