MGA G200 AGP (rev 01) Base System Installation Checklist: [O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it Initial boot worked: [O] Configure network HW: [O] Config network: [O] Detect CD: [O] Load installer modules: [O] Detect hard drives: [O] Partition hard drives: [O] Create file systems: [O] Mount partitions: [O] Install base system: [O] Install boot loader: [O] Reboot: [O] Comments/Problems: The disk partitioner does not tell you which partition is being edited, which strikes me as a potential cause of nasty accidents. The installer seemed to install pcmcia-cs without checking whether it was necessary. The installer asked for the mirror to use after the reboot when I'd already told it as I was installing base from network. No detection of CPU-type? Installer installed a -i386 kernel. Perhaps it could also offer a choice between 2.4 and 2.6? -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.3-1-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
