Comments/Problems:
Very smooth install - it took about 20mins - I've not yet configured the
system no X as yet.
/etc/yaboot.conf included the details for booting my production
sid system on hda16 but I had to run ybin to be able to boot into
it. It would be good if the installer gave the option to run
ybin before rebooting or else include some warning that ybin may
need to be run to successfully boot linux systems on other
partitions.
The installer doesn't pick up that this is a dual processor box
but it's no big deal to install the smp kernel.
Great work everyone! I'll try it on my beige G3 next which should
provide more excitement ;)
Regards
Clive

We are closing this installation report for one of the following
reasons:
- it was reported with a pre-lenny version of Debian
Installer.
- indications in the installation report give the feeling that
the reported problem waslying in another software, unrelated to
D-I, which we can't easily identify.
- indications in the installation report suggest that it may have been
fixed in a more recent version of a D-I component
- it was successful and we forgot closing it..:-)
- it has no information we consider useful
The D-I team is currently in the process of cleaning out the old spool
of installation reports that haven't bene processed yet.
In case you think that the problem you reported has chances to be
still present, please reiterate your installation test with
a more recent image of D-I, if you're in position of doing this.
You'll find daily builds at
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer. We recommend you choose
the netboot image, in the "daily builds section", then choose to
install "squeeze" when prompted.
If some problems are found, please report them with a new bug sent
against installation-reports.
Many thanks for your understanding and your help improving Debian,
past and present.
