Strange installation order
I just had a rather strange experience installing a daily image on a
NSLU2 (ARM). I did the usual steps of choosing the mirror, (in lowmem
level 2) choosing the udebs, partitioning, installing the base system.
When it was done installing the base system, I noticed that
flash-kernel-installer was running - a step that normally runs right
at the end. After flash-kernel-installer, it suddenly presented me
with localechooser. lowmem removed the logs and then I got
clock-setup, user-setup, apt-setup, pkgsel.
The installation worked, but the order is very strange. Has anyone
seen this before?
