Comments/Problems:
I needed to use a snapshot as the built-in broadcom network card is not supported in the beta 2 release (newer kernel required)
- selecting a network card driver
instead of only listing the module names, a list of cards supported by each
driver should be available. only by reading Bdale's installation report
using a nc4000 i figured which driver i needed (tg3 isn't very descriptive).
- installing GRUB
in console3 (the installation log) it says that installing GRUB can take
a long time. This should better be shown in the installer window.
I hit ESC, CTRL-C accidentally before reading this note.
- list of steps in the installation process
it'd be nice if each item in this list would get marked once it's done.
so when going back to the main menu before rebooting it would be easy
to check any missing steps (if skipping one step is actually possible)
Issues after 1st reboot (2nd stage installer)
- Timezone selection is too us-centric ;-)
Otherwise the basic installation went smoothly. Congrats to the developers!
default X 4.3.0-2 only works with the vesa driver. Use ATI's radeon/firegl
drivers to enable other features like xv.
Bye, Stefan

I assume that you told d-i that you spoke english using the en_US
locale. This is the default. This means there is a good chance you live
in the US, so it is a good idea to give you a list of US timezones. If
you had chosen some other en_* locale, or another language, you would
have been placed in a different country and gotten an appropriate list
for that country.
