Comments/Problems:

The load installer modules could not detect my IDE drive, but it still works 
for installation. And one thing that i am concerning was this debian installer 
should have the dual boot option of LILO ( like previous woody ). For example, 
we able to boot from all the drive that we had partition. Because after i 
installed the debian using the debian installer, the boot option straight boot 
to linux, and i lost my windows MBR. Even i tried to re-configure the LILO and 
using grub it doesn't work. And for the boot option i would suggest it support 
vanilla as well,since my LCD display could properly display the wording during 
installation.Thanks.
