Comments/Problems: 

Initialy I set my mirror as mirror.direct.ca (which is broken).
Then I specified mirror.kernel.org but the installer got stuck.
It downloaded the package files, but then some 
error flashed at the top of the screen (something like cannot read files) and
then it went back to configuring apt.

Specifying a new configuration for apt did not
overwrite previous configuration, just appended to it. After fixing the
apt.source manually (by deleting first from broken sources),
the installation continued correctly.

It would make much more sense for the apt configuration step in
the installer to overwrite apt files ALWAYS. Otherwise if a mirror
is broken, the installation is stuck unless the apt.source is
edited manually.

It would also be nice to have HID module installed and /dev/input
created (for mice, etc.) New Intel and especially Macs use USB.

I'm processing old installation reports, and have, finally, gotten to
yours. Thanks for talking the time to file an installation report.

I'm closing your installation report, after determining that:
- Some problems you reported are no longer present in current versions of t=
he
  installer.
- Your report mentions some strange problems that seem unlikely to be
  present in current versions of the installer.

If you can, please try installing again using a current version of the
debian installer. I recommend the tc1 release, which you can find on our
web page, <http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/>. If you can, try
to reproduce the problems you reported using it, so we can verify that
they're all fixed. We look forward to your new installation report.
