Comments/Problems:
<Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments
and ideas you had during the initial install.>
I want a choice for a partion for de root device whithouht to have make
free space. I want to install in /dev/hda8 and leave /dev/hda9-12 as
they are. Some of them are bootable from LILO and this new installer
changes /dev/hda9-12 to /dev/hda8-11 if I make /dev/hda8 free space. The
new partition then will get the name /dev/hda12. This is NOT what I
want. The old installers from Debian Slink and Potato do not have this
problem.
And I cannot find in the menu a choice to make a boot-floppy. I want
that floppy becourse I want to make my own lilo.conf to start various
operating systems. I like to find the lilo.conf of the new o.s. in /etc
as it would be if lilo has run, but whithouth running lilo from the
installer.
greetings,
Martin Rijgersberg.

This is possible and very easy.
Just select 'manual partitioning', select your existing hda8 partition,
choose 'Use as:' and select for example ext3. Make sure this partition
will be formatted and set its mountpoint as '/'.

You'll have to find another way to do this, or you could install lilo
to /dev/hda8 instead of the MBR.
Closing this installation report as there were no real problems.
