To Whom It May Concern:

I am writing in regard of "Debian FAQ" to the addresses that are 
mentioned in "<F8> function" of the debian-boot disk as well as 
suggested by the debian FAQ itself.

My concern is that it is not so obvious to find the Debian FAQ,
and therefore I would like to suggest:

- The <F8> Help Function (BootDisk) should mention that the 
  Debian FAQ is available in these following places:
  a) ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/doc/FAQ
  b) doc-debian package which will be installed into 
     /usr/share/doc/debian/FAQ at the localdisk.
  c) to mention that there is also a Linux FAQ in
     /usr/share/doc/FAQ (doc-linux-text package).

Indeed. Choosing Help then Hitting F9 at the D-I boot prompt brings an
help screen that explicitely mentions the DAQ (and Installation
Guide), adding that both can be found on http://www.debian.org

IMHO, this is sufficient to say users "there is FAQ an you can find it
easily".
