Comments/Problems:

Just can't seem to figure out how to install the gnome window thing. I'm
looking for a way to help some older folks with older machines, and thought
this might be a good shot, but I'm having trouble using the installer
atitude...seems to have one for me. Funny thing whenever booting too...there
is like a shimmy in the screen...like it trys to load something and
can't...I wonder if it's trying to get the gnome up...and can't for some
reason. Anyway, I've tried 3 times now, and it's the same thing. Really
don't expect these simple users to work in a command line
envirornment...they need some kind of window envirornment...

We are closing this installation report for one of the following
reasons:
- it was reported with a pre-lenny version of Debian
  Installer.
- indications in the installation report give the feeling that
  the reported problem waslying in another software, unrelated to
  D-I, which we can't easily identify.
- indications in the installation report suggest that it may have been
  fixed in a more recent version of a D-I component
- it was successful and we forgot closing it..:-)
- it has no information we consider useful


The D-I team is currently in the process of cleaning out the old spool
of installation reports that haven't bene processed yet. 

In case you think that the problem you reported has chances to be
still present, please reiterate your installation test with
a more recent image of D-I, if you're in position of doing this.

You'll find daily builds at
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer. We recommend you choose
the netboot image, in the "daily builds section", then choose to
install "squeeze" when prompted.

If some problems are found, please report them with a new bug sent
against installation-reports.

Many thanks for your understanding and your help improving Debian,
past and present.
