Comments/Problems:
1 - Where's fdisk? I prefer fdisk for writing partition tables. After
<AltF2>ing to the text console to use it I discovered it wasn't
there. Please include it in the final release - it doesn't take
up much space and is a lot nicer for the experienced
user.
2 - I had a problem with using two ethernet controllers at once,
the onboard Via and a Natsemi-based PCI card.
I couldn't find a way of making the
Via eth0 and the Natsemi eth1 (the installer made them the other
way around). I took out the Natsemi card and the network setup went
OK with via-rhine module assigned to eth0.
On re-installing the card after the installation was finished,
eth0 reverted to natsemi and eth1 to via-rhine on rebooting
despite the addition of
alias eth0 via-rhine
alias eth1 natsemi
to /etc/modules.conf. I did notice that `lspci' listed the Natsemi
card before the onboard Via, so I guess that's the order
the kernel detects them in. I solved the problem by putting
via-rhine
natsemi
in /etc/modules. This appears to load the modules in that order
before the kernel probes for them.
I'm not sure if that counts as a bug or if it was just my ignorance
of the way modules are loaded.
General Comments: Compared with my previous installation (Debian-installer
Beta-1 used to install 11-11-03 Sid snapshot) this is very nice. Apart from
the above minor problem with ethernet modules, all my hardware appears to
to have been detected properly and set up with the right modules.
(A trivial point - I did notice that /floppy symlink to /media/floppy0 is
missing).
I switched to Debian around 18 months ago after getting tired of the amount
of software I was forced to install by Red Hat's installation program.
The Debian-installer is far superior - it's very easy to use and still
allows a lean, bloat-free installation.

Use expert mode and choose the "partitioner" udeb (from memory) will
bring you with the fdisk thing (that bloody impossible to properly
translate thing...:-)))

This is the only way to get the modules loaded in the order you wich.

And then closing yet another successful install report...THanks for
your time testing it and reporting your test results.
