hrhr, well anaconda/kudzu might be quite good but I've no experience
using it on the uhm 10 other arches Debian supports.
Talking about X based installers with hardware detection I would prefer the
installer from Conectiva Linux (the one that is not based on UL).
They're using apt-rpm so a port to the normal Debian apt port should be
relativly easy. But hey it hasn't been done so far so their seems to be no
pressure or need to do it.
