Comments/Problems:
Apart from having to disable autodetect of the Cdrom to get the media to
boot, the installation was very smooth/slick; particularly impressive
was the guided LVM partitioning with separate partitions for /, /home,
/usr, /var and /tmp.
Minor issues: I didn't install anything at the tasksel stage but when I
went to use aptitude after reboot, it wanted a CD inserted. When
editing the sources.list there were two CD lines: one commented and the
other uncommented. Commenting the second allowed aptitude to proceed as
normal.
The public key was missing until I upgraded gnupg but I guess I wouldn't
have encountered this if I'd accepted some packages at the tasksel
stage.
pciutils wasn't installed by default.
Overall, d-i gets better everytime I use it - great work! ... and many
thanks to all!
Regards
Clive
