Hi,
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/errata should really link to=20
http://wiki.debian.net/index.cgi?DebianInstallerBrokenThings and=20
http://wiki.debian.net/index.cgi?DebianInstallerWorkarounds as the errata=20
does not include all the information which can be found there.
btw, which is the right package to report these kinds of errors to ?
regards,
Holger

The errata is not intended to be an exhaustive list of every problem,
it's intended to document new problems in a given release that affect a
large group of users and are a priority to be fixed.
I've found that the information on the DebianInstallerBrokenThings page is
frequently out of date and wrong. It's impossible to tell if an item
like "Installation on SATA HD (ICH5) with kernel 2.6" is still a
problem; there's no mechanism to contact the person to added that or to
get more information about the problem, unlike in a bug report. That's
why I added warnings to those pages to "do not add things to this page
unless you reference the number of a currently open bug in the Debian
Bug Tracking System". As such, the page is fairly useless. I don't see
any point in the errata page linking to the BTS.
DebianInstallerWorkarounds does not describe problems in d-i and so I
don't see why the errata page should link to it.
