INSTALL REPORT
Debian-installer-version: Beta 3, 100 MB CD image, downloaded on 19
Apr 2004 from http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/
uname -a:
Linux pc-ballabio 2.4.25-1-386 #1 Tue Feb 24 08:11:13 EST 2004 i686
GNU/Linux
Date: 20 Apr 2004 in the morning (Central Europe time)
Method: installed base system from the 100 MB CD image, then
downloaded extra packages via apt-get from
http://debian.nettuno.it/debian/. No proxy.
Machine: desktop PC, don't know the brand (my employer gave me)
Processor: AMD Athlon 750 Mhz
Memory: 512 MB

Root Size/partition table:
Sorry, don't know where to get this from... well, /dev/hda1 was an 8
GB primary partition with Windows on it, and I left it untouched. On
the remaining space I created three logical partitions:
/dev/hda5 of 100 MB -> ext3 filesystem, mounted on /boot
/dev/hda6 of 20 GB -> ext3 filesystem, mounted on /
/dev/hda7 of 1.2 GB (thus filling the disk) -> swap space

Comments/Problems:
Congratulations for the excellent work. Having experienced the Woody
install, I was amazed at how little I had to do. Everything worked
like a breeze, including network configuration via DHCP. The only
thing I did manually (besides selecting language and keyboard and
entering the hostname) was to partition the HD, and only because I
chose to.
I've been having a minor problem though: the GRUB boot screen doesn't
show any entry for booting Windows. I can mount the Windows partition
though. I'm wondering whether I made it unbootable inadvertently --
or screwed it up completely, but as far as I have looked, and given my
limited knowledge of the Windows filesystem, it seems ok.

As Colin said, fixed in the daily builds and will be in beta4.
Thank you for your installation report.
