Comments/Problems:
The install went incredibly smoothly, requiring little intervention on
my part execpt manually creating the partitions (to use ext3 and xfs)
though even this was straight forward and intuitive.
The only issue I noticed was during 'grub-install' where the process
hung for a period of ~4 minutes due to probing for the floppy drive (the
bay still had the CD-Rom in.) Perhaps putting a message indicating that
this might be a problem or allowing the option of installing grub with '--no-floppy' might help people who have never experienced this before (or didn't know to ALT+F4 to see why.)
Otherwise, fantastic job all around. Kudos!
