Comments/Problems:
0. Selecting Network device
Luckily I knew from my last system on this PC, which NIC was eth0 and eth1.
1. Select Partitions as mount-points
As I had my HD already partitioned, I just wanted to select the appropriate
mount points. As one can see in the partition table, I selected partition 1
for /boot. In the next step I selected partition 2 and said "Dateisystem
beibehalten" (keep filesystem). After that "/boot" was shown in the
partition list for partition 2.
2. Selecting device for lilo
The explaining text said something about choosing between a partition or a
device, but how can one know, what are valid values to type in the field?
3. reboot-window
It's a nice idea to eject the CD before the reboot. But mine was not in the
DVD-ROM, as the installer obviously assumed, but in the CD-burner. Isn't it
possible to detect from where the running system was booted as KNOPPIX does
it?
The rest of the install was really easy. Thanks a lot for the good work!

Hi,
first and foremost: thank you for your bug report.
I'm currently processing old installation reports, and have come across
yours. Many thanks for all your feedback. It is much appreciated.
Much has changed with the installer since March, and I believe that all
your comments more or less have been dealt with since then, so I will
close this report now.

The partitioner has changed and improved a lot since March. I think the=20
current interface is way better than it was back in March.

lilo is no longer default boot loader. It has been replaced by grub=20
accompanied with a clear (IMO) interface. Please try it out, if you=20
haven't already (lilo is still available though).

Could you please check and see if you still experience this behavior=20
with the most current[1] installer image? Should it be the case, it=20
would be much appreciated, if you would mention this in a new=20
installation report.
