Comments/Problems:

All gone well upto the partition task. It detected the former partition
table and format. But then I detected some problems.

1) It couldn't mount the ext3 primary partition mounted at /. So
installation didn't work. In a further try I could install on ext2 but
NOT in ext3 format. It seems something weird in mounting ext3 partitions


2) Doing manual set for partitions, it cannot be set EXT3 partition (there
are not such posibitity in the menu).
