About a third of the way into the installation, the installer

partition the disks, and walk away until it's ready to set up grub. It

would be helpful if it could ask all of its questions early.

Have you tried preseeding? It allows you to provide answers to some or

all of the questions the installer will ask.

This is complicated and tedious, especially for net install, and the documentation is opaque.
