Comments/Problems:
During boot we chose the "alternative desktop" option "LXDE". The installation
generally went smoothly. But in the end there was just GDM but no LXDE.
A "dpkg -l 'lxde*'" showed that there was no lxde-like package installed.
After running "aptitude install lxde" everything went smoothly.

I suspect you did not enable a mirror during the installation, but 
installed purely from CD. Is that correct?

In that case it is correct that lxde did not get installed as the packages 
just aren't available.

The bug is that the "alternative desktop" should not have been included in 
the isolinux menu for full CD images. I've just fixed that in the 
debian-cd code for new builds.

Cheers,
FJP
