Comments/Problems:

- I chose expert install.  What's the difference with the normal install?
  I didn't really detect anything that was particularly "expert"...

- After saying "no" to "do pc card services need to be started", I found it
  unexpected that I was asked for memory ranges to exclude for PCMCIA;
  I would have thought that the first question would mean I didn't need
  anything with PCMCIA.

- It was impossible to setup the disk layout I wanted:
  - root on raid1 over 2 partitions
  - ditto swap and /boot
  - /var and other things on LVM on RAID1
  I first setup the partitions as raid devices and chose "write to disk", and
  it complained about no root being assigned. I ended up first making one of
  the partitions not for raid but for root, and then after that went back and
  made root on an MD device.  I could have sworn when I did something
  similar in March that it was no problem...
  Also, when setting usage of one of the raid devices to "LVM", that didn't
  get saved somehow, re-entering the partitioning showed "unused". Also the
  swap device (also on raid1) was shown as "swap", but when entering the
  config for that device it also said "not used".  In short, most of the
  configuration entered was not remembered when "writing to disk".
  I made a couple of screenshots with my phone if you're interested.
  I ended up doing alt-f2 and setting things up by hand with mdadm and
  pvcreate et.al.

- The question "should root be allowed to login" should indicate that this
  includes the console; I was thinking of ssh access.  BTW, I think that
  offering to install an ssh server should also be asked, I expect that to
  always be there... which is a pain if you install the server somewhere
  and can't access it remotely.

- After selecting the tasks I was hoping to be dumped into aptitude to
  fine-tune the packages; that didn't happen. Did I miss the choice for
  aptitude somewhere? I did choose "expert install", so I expect to be
  offered a bit more control...

- I didn't get any chance to enter anything for the mail config, hence this
  is going out as from "paul@moordrecht.gps.nl" while it should be just
  "paul@gps.nl" for this system. I need to fix /etc/mailname...
  So please reply to paul@debian.org :-)

- After installation cron in the log that /etc/environment doesn't exist,
  which it doesn't.

- The rescue boot also asks for hostname, domainname, country, etc.,
  so I was a bit worried that I was simply doing an install again.
  Why is that info necessary for a rescue console?
