Comments/Problems:

The install went almost perfectly. Thank you to the debian-installer
team for their efforts!

I have a few minor things I'd like to mention:

- the "Retreiving Packages" screen's dialog box changed sizes as each
new filename was displayed (longer file names, bigger box). It would be
nice if it stayed the same size.

- when retreiving packages, virtual terminal 4 gave me a lot of error
messages of the type "Retrying failed download of ....". Also, it would
be better if the selection of mirror was a higher priority (or at least
an option to change along the way)

- Installing LILO on to hard disk should give options (i.e. Select)
rather than suggesting primary hard drive or on the root partition and
then providing an edit box -- this will confuse new users ("what the
hell does /dev/ide/..../disc mean?" -- if it were /dev/hda or /dev/hda4
it might be easier...)

- At the Reboot screen, the wrong CD-drive was ejected. This is really
not a serious issue, it was rather comical :-) I had my CD in the
second CD drive and the 1st was ejected.

- After the reboot (this may be a base-config thing?) my NIC driver
(eepro100) was not automatically loaded, so I could not download the
rest of the packages. A new user would have been quite confused, but
luckly I know how to switch to another virtual terminal and do a
# modprobe eepro100
# /etc/init.d/networking restart

- base-config (again...) seemed to give me a random selection of 5
Canadian mirrors instead of all of them (this seemed unexpected)

Anyways, I'd just like to thank everyone for their work on
debian-installer. AFAICT, only a few bugs remain for i386.

Thanks,

Hello, a while ago you reported a problem with the Debian Installer. I
think that your problem is fixed in the just released beta 3 of the
installer. If you're still able to install to the hardware you tried it on,
please download it from http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/, and
try it again. Feel free to file another installation report.

A few of the new features of beta 3 include:

  - new easy to use partitioner that supports automatic partitioning and LVM
  - grub as the default boot loader on i386
  - wireless networking support
  - 2.4.25 kernel, with SATA support and security fixes
  - support for the XFS filesystem
