Comments/Problems:
Using Etch (40r4a) netinst image ... the 'newt' installer functions as
expected (for example, as it typically performs for i386 installs) ...
and a functional system was obtained.
But using *any* Lenny installation I cannot using the installer to
progress and installation because it does not respond to keyboard input
(either in 'newt' or 'text' modes). Key pressed are echoed back to my
terminal, but have no effect. :-(
Regards,
Alan.
