Comments/Problems:

1. hostname is asked twice: once before DHCP, and once after typing IP,
DNS...

2. Allows only ext2 and ext3.  reiserfs cannot be chosen?

3. The output of uname -a has a glitch:

There is an error with dACc...
I have chosen french language for installation, and french default
keyboard (the last one I do not remember well).
