The sarge installer is approaching beta. I think maybe this bug has been fixed, but you would need to download a recent daily build. http://people.debian.org/~tfheen/d-i/images/daily/ That's if you're interested in continuing to help us find bugs. Otherwise, install woody and then upgrade to sarge. -- Debian GNU/Linux Operating System By the People, For the People Chris Tillman (a people instance) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
