Comments/Problems:
The first time, I tried to install to unstable. This didn't work
because of some subtle dependency issue, I think, which I could resolve
from the command line but couldn't restart the install from where it
left off.
Okay, I was trying to do stuff with unstable, that's obviously a bad
idea. Try testing again. Tried to use the 2.6.3 kernel. At this
particular time, the 2.6.3 PCMCIA packages had not migrated to testing
yet, so this too failed (this was particularly annoying because this is
a desktop--no PCMCIA at all). I tried again with something where
PCMCIA did exist, and that worked great.
BTW, kudos. The installer scared me the first time because it wasn't
asking any questions all of a sudden.
Graham

Hi,
first and foremost: thank you for your bug report.=20
<http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=3D241634>
I'm currently processing old installation reports, and since you
had some comments about the debian installer back in April, I thought I
wanted to state that - as you may already know - so much has changed
and improved since April. Therefore I will close this report, since you
overall had a successful installation (although with some issues that=20
are very likely to have been fixed since).
However, it would be great and very much appreciated, if you could find
time to download and test the latest[1] cd image and comment on any new
problems with the installer you might come across.
Thank you very much for your time.
