Comments/Problems:

First, let me say this installer is great.  I was converted to Debian
by a friend of my in 2000 after being a Redhat user for ~5 years
(prior to that I had a Sparc for 4 years).  Since then I've been
trying to convert other friends from Redhat to Debian, but they always
whined abuot the install process - this installer changed that.

Ok, now for the issues:

1) If I setup a logical volume on one of the IDE hard drives during
   installation, LVM fails to find it because the ide_disk modules is not
   placed in /etc/modules by the installer. 

2) For some reason the UDMA is not enabled on the IDE hard drives.  When
   I try to enable it manully, I get the error "HDIO_SET_DMA failed:
   Operation not permitted".  However, udma does work if I install a
   2.4 debian kernel or with the latest KNOPPIX CD.

I wish I knew what lvm is trying to do with the disk that does not cause
ide_disk to autoload, when even just a dd of the disk device causes it
to autoload in my testing.

Should be fixed in images containing ddetect 1.12 then, this should
include today's daily build.
