Comments/Problems:
booting from usb2 dvd drive worked fine, as did the first configure
steps
When detecting network hw, the installer did try to load modules for
every part of the hw present on the system (which is a bit misleading I
think), and even though i told him not to do so, tried to load every ide
driver module availible (via,promise,...), which of course failed every
time with an error message.
Network config via dhcp didn't work, for one reason or another (I now
that the dns server works), but did fine when configureing manualy)
when doing the general hw detection, it again tried to load every
availible ide driver module, even though i diactivated them)
One other thing, ehich is not all that importand for me though:
When I told the install to install with kernel 2.6.4, it failed because
it didn't find kernel-pcmcia-modules-2.6.4-686 (or was it
kernel-pcmcia-modules-2.6.4-1-686, sorry I forgot)
that is quite a minor issue for me because i compile my kernel myself,
so the installed one is replace quite soon
(maybe it is importand: i selected to install unstable, not sarge)
