Comments/Problems:
The automatic-partitioning (partman?) confused my USB-floppy drive with
a harddrive. First of all it takes it app. 2 minutes to start and then
it shows no less than 8 wierd non-existing harddrives. In the dmesg log
the floppy-drive is listed as a USB Mass Storage device and shows up as
8 separate drives: 0,0,0 through 0,0,7 (or sda,..,sdh).
I was very surprised to se the automatic suggestion simply wanted to
delete my ntfs partition (with WinXP).. While being the devils spawn, my
employer actually payed good money for it, so what I really wanted was
to resize the partition and install Debian along side with it - and with
the RC2 installer I did that quite easily.
For this particular laptop I couldn't get suspend-to-ram/suspend-to-disk
working with any other kernel than 2.6.11.4 - having 2.6.11 in the
Debian would make it easier to install Debian on this laptop
