Haven't touched any of the other partitions. This disk will be sent to

Comments/Problems:

Ok. Some things I found:

First time I tried, it hanged on the Packages.gz download. Or at least,
it seemed so. Couldn't check the wget cmdline in ps auxwww (w doesn't
work, unfortunately, but apart from that BusyBox (with cmdline history)
rocks!), so I catted /proc/`pidof wget`/cmdline and saw there was a
slash missing in http://ftp.us.debian.orgdebian/bla.... AFAIK the slash
should be there. (http://hostname and path can't be separate arguments,
can they?) Allowing me to choose a closer mirror would've been nice btw.

Second time I tried, everything went better. I picked the Dutch language
from the list, and noticed that it also assumes a Dutch keyboard then. I
can tell you, Dutch keyboards still exist over here, but there are less
Dutch keyboards than Debian users in this country. Please change that
default, or better, let the user pick a layout.

The only other problem I can remember is the timezone configuration. I
picked Europe and then got a lot of cities/countries, but no Amsterdam.
Didn't really look like Europe at all. In the end I found out Amsterdam
lies in Australia these days. ;-)

One small wishlist/hint: In the list of partitions, I chose "Continue"
because I thought it was finished. Obviously, that was the wrong choice,
and now the installer was asking me what to do with hda1. Fortunately I
was still smart/awake enough to press Cancel. Maybe it would be nice to
put a list of the partitions the program is going to touch in the Finish
window, as a final warning to the user.

Anyway, looks quite good! Not yet ready, but certainly a lot better than
the d-i I tested a couple (4 IIRC) of months ago.

Changes:

 .
   * Kenshi Muto
     - Run jfbterm when language is non-latin/Russian.
       And when jfbterm failed, termwrap fallbacks to C. (closes: Bug#226200)
     - Add WRAPPER_OPTION (closes: Bug#225865)
     - Apply validlocale patch for support codeset style. (closes: Bug#225870)
       Thanks Mutsumi.
   * Joey Hess
     - Fix apt-setup return code if add another source question is not
       displayed.
     - List the number of available packages in apt-setup/another.
     - Use ngettext to allow for appropriate translation of the "packages"
       string.
     - Removed the last remnants of non-us support in apt-setup.
     - Remove the remainders of support for the old dbootstrap_settings file.
       Note that all the translated man pages are not badly out of date.
   * Denis Barbier
     - Switch to using gettext instead of $"" in shell scripts, and
       use xgettext -L Shell.
     - Better use of ngettext.
   * Joey Hess
     - Build-depend on gettext version 0.13.
     - Fix signular form of the ngettexted string.
     - The removal of $"" should remove the only bashism, so convert scripts
       over to /bin/sh.
     - Update copyright file.
     - Add a -c switch to tzsetup. With this switch, it will use the
       country code passed in to construct a list of likely time
       zones, and prompt accordingly.
     - Call tzsetup this way, using debian-installer/country.
       Closes: #226344
     - Use .tst files to control whether items appear on the menu.
     - Use this for keyboard, ppp, and mta setup, to avoid displaying
       those items on the menu if they will not actually do anything.
     - Add Changes-Menu field to .mnu files that forces a menu rebuild.
       This is necessary to handle mta's menutest properly.
     - US and Canada have so many screwed up time zones in zone.tab that
       it's better to have hand-written templates for their more common time
       zones. Similar templates can be added for other countries at need.
     - Also added hand-written template for Brazil.
     - Add debian-installer/language to the db, so things like
       dictionaries-common can use it.
     - Export TMPDIR.
     - Add dep on gettext-base.
     - mirror/distribution has been renamed to mirror/suite in d-i, follow
       .. er .. suite.
     - To prevent breaking beta2 too badly, set the default suite to
       testing. Unstable d-i will always override this, so it's safe to do.
     - Urgency set to high; this needs to get into testing to be tested..
   * Christian Perrier
     - Rewrite templates to save work to translators by splitting up
       a paragraph. Deeply sorry to translators who already updated their
       files.
   * Petter Reinholdtsen
     - Correct typo, ISO-8895-15 -> ISO-8859-15.
 .

     - Bartosz Fenski
       - Updated Polish (pl) translation.
     - Giuseppe Sacco

       - changed all string when selectin tasksel/dselect/...
