Well there's good news for when you next do battle with the installer (two weeks must be up around now). Rather than videoing what you do, you can now easily capture the installation screens, and the log output from the installer, and even the partitioner (though that's extremely verbose). In expert install, if you select network-console in the Installer Components screen, you can ssh from another box immediately after configuring the network. You can of course ssh multiple times, and so have one session doing the actual installing, and another running tail -f /var/log/syslog Cheers, David. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
