Comments/Problems:
Well, I don't know what changed, but I think this was the fastest d-i has
ever installed on this hardware. *Something* must be better in this kernel.
It also seems that d-i managed to float my local mirror to the top of the
mirror selection list. That was freaky.
I haven't really been keeping track, but I think this may have also been the
first d-i run on this hardware where the SCSI controller hasn't caused the
kernel to explode. This time around, it was detected nicely, although I
wasn't installing to any partitions there.
Looks good, ship it!
Now to test CD installs...
