Great work! This must be the fastest installer ever. (But because I =
trashed my win2k partition I started all over again) No showstoppers, =
hardware detection worked (fast), sane defaults. Thus it is time to =
complain about aesthetics and such.
1) To the dutch translator: 'spiegelserver'!!? Dat is toch geen =
vertaling! Ik denk dat je of naar de creatieve oplossing van de vlaamse =
vertaler moet kijken, of je moet mirrorserver laten staan. Want =
'spiegelserver' is zeker weten een compleet nieuw woord. Ik heb ook =
onvertaalde delen gezien, maar dat is vast werk in uitvoering.
2) I have a static network setup. Unfortunately the DHCP client is =
initiated automatically without a cancel option. It retries numerous =
times, fails, sleeps and stalls the download occasionaly while retrying =
and failing again. After I returned to the menu I selected static =
network setup item which was listed after the mirrorserver selection =
item. After the network setup d-i automatically starts downloading from =
the painfully slow ftp.us.debian.org mirror. Without a cancel option! I =
opened the second console killed the process and restarted the =
debian-installer. No settings lost, nice. Now I selected the fast dutch =
mirror and could continue.
3) I use grub, but didn't know there was a module untill the next =
install. Lilo installed fine. But why doesn't it have an option to =
install a dual boot menu?

X-Spam-Level:
There is still no cancel option for DHCP (because the actual
implementation of cdebconf does not allow it), but DHCP now only takes
10s and after that you can choose if you want to try longer or configure
a static network.
I think this is a reasonable solution of your wishlist bug and I'm
therefore closing this report.
