Comments/Problems:
Installation generally went very well. I ended up with a working system.
There were no entries in fstab for cdrom and floppy, but that is known erro=
r.
ISSUE 1 - base-installer
Main problem is wrong selection of kernel.
Install base system selected 2.4.25-1-386, this should be 2.4.25-1-686.
=46rom 'cat /proc/cpuinfo':
processor : 0
vendor_id : GenuineIntel
cpu family : 6
model : 8
model name : Pentium III (Coppermine)
stepping : 6
cpu MHz : 1000.037
ISSUE 2 - kbd-chooser
What is the sort order in the list for Keyboard selection? I could detect
no logic at all.
ISSUE 3 - Hardware detection
After Detect and mount CDROM I was given a list of modules that would be te=
sted.
As I knew a lot of them were irrelevant for my system, I deselected them.
This had the unexpected effect that during subsequent Hardware detections, I
got 'red screens' with the message "Error while running 'modprobe -v <modul=
e>'".
I think manually deselected modules should not be probed in later detection=
s.
If I do not deselect any modules, these errors do not appear.
ISSUE 4 - Partition disks (partman)
I have a swap partition on both my harddisks. By default they are both sele=
cted.
This is apparently shown by the smiley, but I think it would be a lot clear=
er if
also 'SWAP' would be shown as mountpoint (at the end of the line).
Maybe there could be a summary of just partitions to be formatted/mounted
before the final confirmation.
(We also need to list the meaning of the smileys in the manual.)
ISSUE 5 - 2nd stage apt configuration: choose mirror country
As default the country United states was shown (probably based on en_US), b=
ut I
chose Netherlands as country in 1st stage. Can't the installation process
'remember' this?
ISSUE 6 - Default packages
Why are pppoe, pppoeconfig and ipchains selected by default? The first two =
I can
somewhat understand, but ipchains is obsolete.
Also, in Woody the installer would detect that my box did not have PCMCIA a=
nd offer
to remove the packages. I'd like this back! I hate stupid errors during boo=
t.
ISSUE 7 - Errors during installation of console packages
I got the following errors during the installation of console-common and -d=
ata.
I have no idea where the come from. I selected PC-style/American English in
kbd-chooser.
< SNIP from package installation START >

< SNIP from package installation END >
ISSUE 8 - Exim4 configuration: no mailalias for root
I set up Exim4 for "local delivery only".
Exim configuration for Woody used to ask if you wanted to setup an
alias for root (so mail for root would be forwarded to a normal user).
In exim4, if no alias is created, mail for root gets routed to
/var/mail/mail and so will never be seen by a normal user.
Not even root cat read his own mail!!!! There is even a warning about
this in /usr/share/doc/exim4/README.Debian.gz.
Setting up a mail-alias for root should be included in debconf with
priority HIGH. Currently (for both testing and unstable) this is not
supported.

.
* Anton Zinoviev
- the formatting progress bar provides feedback on the mount point
(when such is assigned).
- the same change is made to partman-ext3, partman-reiserfs and
partman-xfs. Thanks to Sven Luther (closes: #238062).
- new method `swap'; the swap is not a file system any more. Thanks
to Joey Hess (closes: #235371).
- make the file system name in the check progress bar translatable.
- the script update.d/swap_mountpoint is obsoleted and removed.
I hope this closes: #238383, thanks to Martin Michlmayr.
- show `swap' as mount point for swap partitions. Thanks to Frans Pop,
closes: #239387
- rules: remove .svn directories from the package
- commit.d/format_*: do not format already formatted partitions for
second time.
- the same change is made in partman-ext3, partman-reiserfs and
partman-xfs. Thanks to Martin Michlmayr (closes: #238385).
