Comments/Problems:

This is not a bug in the software, but a confusing
behaviour.

In the main menu, detect disks leads to partitioning disks.

I don't want to change partitioning. I don't want to format
anything. In fact, I am only installing the system to fix some errors
in the C library locations.  I just want to make /dev/hda1 to be the
root file system.

If I select IDE1, I get

http://raneb.openlib.org/~krichel/f2.jpg

and on yes

http://raneb.openlib.org/~krichel/f3.jpg

which I don't want. I have forgetten what happened when selecting
"no", but it not lead to joy either. I am working on this sittnig in
Australia and the machine is being handled by my friends in NYC.

If I proceed to "Finish partitioning", I am getting

http://raneb.openlib.org/~krichel/f5.jpg

It would be useful to have an item "mount already existing file
system" as earlier versions of the installer had.

I think the current "help on partitioning" is rather vague.
If you send me the text, I can try to improve.
