Comments/Problems:
There should have been an option to drop to cfdisk or fdisk instead of
using the built-in partition manager, as the built-in utility is
somewhat lacking. I was
very impressed by its detection of my Broadcom BCM5900 network card.
Perhaps in the future support for a wireless LAN card and possibly
ndiswrapper could be
added. The installation went smoothly, baseconf went smoothly, haven't
had a problem with the system.
