Base System Installation Checklist:
[O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it

Initial boot:           [O]
Detect network card:    [O]
Configure network:      [O]  [the first attempt at getting a DCHP lease reliably times out.  Retrying helps.]
Detect CD:              [O]
Load installer modules: [O]
Detect hard drives:     [O]
Partition hard drives:  [O]
Install base system:    [O]
Clock/timezone setup:   [E]  System clock wasn't set properly, don't know why.  Installing ntp and restarting it on the final system helped.
User/password setup:    [O]
Install tasks:          [O]
Install boot loader:    [O]
Overall install:        [O]

Comments/Problems:

The BIOS that was on my dc7700 was version 1.05 and that had serious
performance issues when booting the final system - not during the
installer tho.  It was very slow - needed about 10 minutes to boot to
the login prompt.  Upgrading that to the latest - 1.09 - helped.  This
isn't a d-i issue, but maybe it will help people who stumble over this
report.

All in all a very quick, painless, and good setup.  Thanks.


Peter
