Package: installation-reports
Version: 2.38
Severity: normal


-- Package-specific info:

Boot method: netboot (gtk)
Image version: lenny rc1 (gtk)
Date: Nov 17 18:00 -05?00 EST

Machine: IBM Aptiva E Series 55U
Partitions: <df -Tl will do; the raw partition table is preferred>


Base System Installation Checklist:
[O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it

Initial boot:           [O]

Load installer modules: [O]
Detect hard drives:     [O]
Partition hard drives:  [E]
Install base system:    [O]
Clock/timezone setup:   [O]
User/password setup:    [O]
Install tasks:          [E]
Install boot loader:    [O]
Overall install:        [O]

Comments/Problems:

When partitioning hard drives it was impossible to create a new empty 
partition on the hard drives because there was an exising lvm-on-raid.  
the raid failed to be deleted because the lvm was not deleted first.

During task selection it is impossible to select an XFCE desktop 
(especially from netboot)

This leads to finding another bug, probably in apt (reported in aptitude 
previously by me), in which gnome-session and gnome-settings-daemon (and 
other gnome bits) which are unnecessary for xfce+gdm, are pulled in 
because gdm depends on gnome-session | x-terminal-emulator but even 
though xfce4-terminal was in the apt install line it didn't remove the 
need for gnome-session according to apt.  I removed afterwards but it is 
kind of a pain.  It pulls in a few MB worth of GNOME crap because of 
this.
