Comments/Problems:
I used this install to test the use of a wireless card for network access. =

card (Linksys WPC11v3) was detected and worked perfectly.
***PROBLEM: The new installation routine does not install development tools=
=2E=20
The nature of Linux with the near standard of ./configure make makes the=20
resultant system very weak. In addition, adding the tools afterward is very=
=20
error prone. I've used apt to install gcc, g++, etc and (after 2 days) am=20
still not able to compile because of a missing cc1plus. Older versions of t=
he=20
installer made installation of development tools a simple matter of one=20
selection during installation. Either apt needs to be able to actually=20
install working compilers or the installer needs to be able to set up the=20
compilation tools - preferably both should work. The removal of the feature=
=20
to install development tools makes the installation of Linux from this=20
version of the installer all but useless. Please consider putting the abili=
ty=20
to install development tools as part of the base install back in the=20
intaller. This change is a giant step backward.
