Comments/Problems:
eth0: The installer could not activate eth0 at any time and it tried for
a LONG time. I didn't try eth0 immediately, but added a few hosts to
the /etc/hosts file, including the name of the gateway (router/firewall)
and it worked for me on the first attempt. Before adding the hosts, I
checked <route> and the output looked OK.
Load intaller modules: In expert mode, the installer locked up when
when I edited the IDE module selection. All of my hard drives are
connected to the Promise Ultra133 PCI-IDE controller because of crc
errors when using the MB Via IDE controller. The Debian installer
recognized this PCI-IDE adapter, some distros don't, and installing in
the non-expert mode went very well.
<Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments
and ideas you had during the initial install.>
My first impression is very positive. X worked, although DRI did not,
but I haven't made any attempt to fix that, yet.
Install logs and other status info is available in
/var/log/debian-installer/.
Available if your really want them, but not attached.
