Comments/Problems:
Neither LILO nor GRUB would install correctly. Tried normal and expert mode.
LILO would not install at all, GRUB hung with 80% complete and after a
manual reboot, GRUB would start, but I was not able to start the linux due
to $#@%^#% devfs (just don't know how to tell kernel root=....)
Will try unstable netinst later.
