Bug#609972: installation-reports: Installation of Squeeze on Dell 710m



Quoting T.F. Torrey (tftorrey@tftorrey.com):

Given that your installation was a complete success, I do as
usual with reports for successful installations: I close the bug..:-)

This does not of course mean you weren't right to report. Knowing the
installations are correct is important for the d-i team.

Many thanks for your time testing the Debian Installer and reporting
your results. Have fun with your new Debian system!
