Comments/Problems:

<Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments
      and ideas you had during the initial install.>

Trivial issue: partitioner allows invalid characters in file system
labels, then mkfs phase throws a red screen error.  Easily enough
figured out and fixed from the log console, just silly of it.
(I initially set the label for the sole -- root -- partition to "/".)

Serious issue: install base system phase fails because bzcat is not
available.  I _think_ the package in process at the time of failure
is bootstrap-base, based on looking at ps after the red screen appears.
