Comments/Problems:
I tried to actually use the 'sid' option when choosing a mirror.
I guess I shouldn't have expected it to work, but perhaps
some text in the dialog to that effect is in order.
When I rebooted, I couldn't use my USB keyboard to "OK" the
'welcome back' dialog. I had to plug it into the PS/2 port.
I continued adding stuff after the base install that exposed
some hardware issues...
The XFree86 hardware detection *almost* worked; it figured
out I have a NEC LCD1700M+NEC, but it got the HorizSync
wrong, which resulted in skipping the 1024x768 mode
and only using 800x600. Any clues on which package that
bug is in?
Mouse configuration was a pain; I did it pretty much manually,
by copying my /etc/gpm.conf from my sid system.
Sound didn't work out-of-the-box; I discovered the sndconfig
package... it figured out how to play a sound, but esd still
wasn't working... I then remembered to update-modules
and add myself to the audio group.
Those are the problems I ran into. FYI, some more context:
I was playing with grub, LVM, and reiserfs tonight,
as well as debian-installer. They all seem to get along reasonably well:
* This machine has been running debian (sid) for a long time.
Tonight's install was on a 2nd IDE disk.
* I tested some of the components of netinst ala:
- grab netinst.iso above
- mount it, using losetup
- set up tftp and dhcp
- EtherBoot a Sony Vaio laptop.
That way, I was able to confirm that the 2003-11-19 build is a lot
closer to the Chickenrun[1] than the 9 Nov beta release, just from
the early stages of the install, without modifying my disks at all.
The instructions in
http://wiki.debian.net/index.cgi?DebianInstallerMknbi
were pretty good; I tweaked them just a bit. (Wiki docs
are great!).

* The first time I actually burned netinst.iso to CD, I got errors
from gtoaster. I tried to use the CD anyway, in case the errors were
spurious. They weren't. The CD was bad. But the debian installer
was fairly robust; it didn't lock up or crash; the diagnostics
it gave when it couldn't read files were pretty reasonable. After
5 or 6 of them, I got the hint that the CD was bad and burned
another one (using cdrecord). Then it worked much better ;-)
* I'm pleased to see LVM and reiserfs support. I started by
reading the LVM-HowTo
http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/ and using my existing sid
installation to set up a volume group and filesystems to use for my
new /home and /usr. I chickened out when it came to putting / on LVM,
so I didn't really use the LVM configuration installer component. I
did this install onto 2 partitions: an ext2 /boot and reiserfs /.
Then, after the base install was done, I moved /home and /usr over to
the LVM filesystems (using tar/cpio/etc.). Seems to work now. I intend
to move /var likewise.
* I had some fun with grub too. I didn't use the grub support in the
installer; I installed grub in my sid system, and configured it to
boot from the 2nd disk (that tooks some work: grub complained that
(hd1,0) didn't exist until I got the BIOS to properly recognize the
disk. I hadn't bothered to do that when I put the disk in the
machine.)
* I like the way popularity-contest is integrated into the install,
though I'd rather send just one report a month or one a quarter
than one per week.
It took me a while to figure out how to file this report; it wasn't
until I found a bunch of bugs files against the installation-reports
package that I knew what was going on; in future release announcements
and such, please link directly to
