Comments/Problems:
	The install boot loader step didn't work.  I got around this by going
	to a virtual console and running mkofboot myself.

<Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments
      and ideas you had during the initial install.>
	* want proper hd-media installer image
	* RAID1 is hopeless
	* want SMP kernels at install time
	* ugh, this is distressing.  d-i created a swap partition but did not
	  construct /etc/fstab such that it would be mounted (the swap
	  partition did not appear at all).

Install logs and other status info is available in /var/log/debian-installer/.
Once you have filled out this report, mail it to submit@bugs.debian.org.

AFAICS this is no longer an issue.
