Yep.  I just went through it again.  I wonder if the install gets
confused if it thinks there's already a previous installation?  I've
noticed with the debian installer that "hidden" options show up
depending on which selections you make.  For example, one of my
installs today allowed me to manually run fdisk, and I'm not quite
sure how to repeat it.  In another, I got to choose which kernel was
installed.

BTW, "bootp():" without arguments works.
