I continued with the installation without any problems. No operation problems after re-boot. I have sound because of the 2.6.18-6-686 kernel furnished by this installation as compared to a newer kernel (2.6.26-1.686) <Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments and ideas you had during the initial install.> Did not download a disc image for the network install. Downloaded linux, initrd.gz ; booted from these with grub. See reference, "Boot method" section.
