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: [ ] Detect CD: [O] Load installer modules: [0] Detect hard drives: [0] Partition hard drives: [0] Create file systems: [0] Mount partitions: [0] Install base system: [0] Install boot loader: [E] remark: lilo fails to be wrote at mbr... but grub instalation at mbr is ok! Reboot: [O]
Comments/Problems:
In my opinion the instalation process is clear and simple for a Linux user. The questions are clear and the Debian installer sequence is good. The partition tool is great for a Linux user, but maybe so complicated to an newbie.
