Some annoiences about the installer software
I used etch boot floppies. Some of these little bugs are probably only
limited to floppies installation.
1) When the root image prints the suggestion to continue, possibly to
install drivers from floppy, it should explicitly note to insert the
floppy before continuing (in case of further installing drivers from a
floppy).
2) After scanning the net2 floppy and printing a continuation message, the
installer activate the floppy device for a short while (does it umount
it)? A user that doesn't expect that short activation might pull the
floppy prior to it. This might result in demaging the contents of the
floppy. This demage is annoying when another attempt to use that floppy
is done.
3) In order to activate the scroll arrows for the help on partitioning I
had to try to scroll up, even though I actually wanted to scroll down.
Pressing the Up arrows is what made the whole scrolling mechanism
active.
