Comments/Problems: I had to try several iso images
before I could get the install process to work.
I noticed that if I switched virtual terminals using
the gtk installer, the GUI and vt1 would crash.
I could still use vt2 or vt3, but I couldn't continue
the installation and had to reboot.
etch named my SATA Hard Drive /dev/sda where as sarge
named it /dev/hde

<the installation was as simple as pi. It took 25
minutes to load the standard and deesktop packages.
It took me 2 tries to setup the partition.I didn't
erase the data on the partition I wanted to use,
The second time I deleted the partition and started
from scratch using the installer to rebuild the
partition
which worked fine.
