Comments/Problems:
<Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments
and ideas you had during the initial install.>
The purpose of the first install was as a base for UserLinux.
They recommend using Sarge-beta2 which worked very well. I do not
have a sacrificialystem that I can use for test installs, so I use
VMware. VMware is an rather unusual configuration and most distributions
do not fare well. However, this installation went off without a
hitch, except for the apt-get configuration. That appears to be an
endless loop, as I could not figure out how to terminate the sequence
without dropping back to the main menu. I would select a apt-get configuration,
it would create the sources.list file and do an update and then drop me
back at the select an apt-get configuration. After two or three loops
through I selected Cancel, which dropped me out to the main menu, where
I completed the last few steps. UserLinux recomends a dist-upgrade to unstable,
which went fine. That is where I am now.
I am also running another install with the same configuration that is going to be a sarge/testing, plain Debian box. It is currently downloading the kde
meta-package and appears to be doing just as well as the first system.
Install logs and other status info is available in /var/log/debian-installer/.
