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

Initial boot worked:    [O]
Configure network HW:   [O]
Config network:         [O]
Detect CD:              [O]
Load installer modules: [O]
Detect hard drives:     [O]
Partition hard drives:  [E]

Mount partitions:       [O]
Install base system:    [O]
Install boot loader:    [O]
Reboot:                 [E]

Comments/Problems:
Partition hard drives:
Selected manual partitioning, but test system configuration was not shown. Had to click to raid section, do nothing but return to partitioner to see software raidsets, then had to click LVM and do nothing but return to partitioner to see LVs. Everything should be seen first time manual partitioning is selected. Then, if the user wishes to change things like deleting/adding an LV or deleting/adding a raidset or just wipping selected configuration items, they can do so.
Display LVs in the LVM section of partitioning does not display all LVs. See list above. Need scrolling window here. 

Reboot:
Booted to logon prompt ok, but no X. Had to apt-install xserver-xorg and Gnome to get desktop even tho all should have been on the DVD. Note: DVD used, not CD. Added mirrors.kernel.org as additional install source during basic install sequence, but didn't help to install a working desktop. 

<Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments
      and ideas you had during the initial install.>
Above pretty much says it. I test various distros and the test system is setup accordingly thus making it out-of-the-ordinary. However, it is a good test of a distro's installation methods, software packaging, ease of use, features, timeliness, robustness, etc. They gui install is getting there, would like to see less of a gui like text install and more gui with drop down menus, selection lists, radio buttons to select items instead of clicking on full lines of options, etc. Also, don't know why the screen was too big for the display, but once into a desktop, was able to select the correct resolution for the monitor and all was well after that.

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.
