Comments/Problems:
Minor nitpicks:
After the initial question of language, I did not find Norway as one of the
primary countriesafter having selected UK English, I would guess most
Norwegian running debian has english as their "main computing language"
Further on, having told the installer that I was in Norway, I was a bit
surprised not to find norwegian as the pre selecetd keyboard
On the partitioning step, I was a bit confused on which buttons that meant
[OK] and [Cancel] quite a few times, I defined a partition, just to manage to
misunderstand which button to press and immideately lose it again. Might have
been a bit late though..
Mainly, just great! I have installed quite a few debian 3.0 system, this was
mostly a much more 'polished' experience.
