Comments/Problems:
Minor Problems:
1. While re-sizing NTFS partition, progress bar stuck at 0% throughout.
2. During mkfs ext3 partition, progress bar stuck at 33% for most of job.
Major Problems:
1. Installation of Grub2 MBR failed, with no suggestions offered.
Installation of Grub 1 MBR failed. Installation of LILO succeeded.
After that, installation of Grub2 succeeded, and worked.
2. Starting X failed and froze the whole machine (flashing LEDs).
This turns out to be because the i915 kernel module in available
kernels is busted. Starting up in recovery mode with "i915.modeset=0",
Xorg -configure generated an xorg.conf file that Xorg.0.log said worked,
but the screen remained black. After changing the video driver named
in xorg.conf to "vesa", startup proceeded correctly to a working
graphical desktop, although screen brightness varies randomly.
3. The i915 driver found in experimental linux-image-2.6.35-rc6-amd64
is fixed. Installing that with apt-get fails for dependencies on
unavailable linux-base and firmware-linux-free. I built my own from
apt-get source and make-kpkg, and it works.
