Comments/Problems:
As soon as the installation routines had network access, they started
downloading lots of data from raff.debian.org. I consider it a bug
that it didn't give me a chance to configure a different server,
especially as I do have a slow internet connection but a proxy server
in the LAN. And I want to repeat the installation within LANs without
Internet access.
After that, the installation complained:
Your installation CD could not be mounted. That probably means that
the CD is not yet inserted. If that's the case, just insert it and
don't perform the manual configuration; the CD mount will be
re-tried. If your CD was already in the drive, there was another
problem: try the manual CD configuration
Perform manual CD configuration? [Yes] [No]
If I say "No", I just get the same screen again.
If I say "Yes", I get pulled into a dialog about CDROM modules and
devices that I'm not interested in. I want the thing to continue
downloading from the net without using the CD.
I find no way to go past this point in the dialog.
Regards,

Hello, a while ago you reported a problem with the Debian Installer. I
think that your problem is fixed in the just released beta 3 of the
installer. If you're still able to install to the hardware you tried it on,
please download it from http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/, and
try it again. Feel free to file another installation report.
A few of the new features of beta 3 include:
- new easy to use partitioner that supports automatic partitioning and LVM
- grub as the default boot loader on i386
- wireless networking support
- 2.4.25 kernel, with SATA support and security fixes
- support for the XFS filesystem
Note that your original installation report may have been split up into
multiple individual bug reports. If so this message closes only one bug,
and not other issues you reported.
