Comments/Problems:
When installing the boot loader, it detected the Debian install as being the
only OS installed, but the machine was already loaded with Windows XP. The
partitioner did see the two NTFS partitions, of which one was set as bootable.
(Ok, known problem)
Skipping setting up a local user account (as to configure it by hand to share
the settings with the other machines on the network) wasn't intuitive. Just
entering blanks on the questions gave me an error, and I had to select Cancel,
which gave me the top-level menu.
In tasksel (with sv_SE locale), pressing "F", which was highlighted for
"Funktionsinfo", i.e info about the task selected, exited tasksel without
saving.
In tasksel, it's slightly confusing to have two active areas, both the task and
a button.
Even though I did the install using a sv_SE locale, the installed setup (only
selected packages with tasksel this time, to see what it selected for me) only
contained en-US/en-GB dictionaries. I would have expected it to include Swedish
dictionaries as well, plus things like the Swedish version of OpenOffice instead
of the English one.
Was unable to get X running with my ATI card, even though I selected autodetect
in the X configuration and received no errors. I have a ATI Radeon 9600.
