The debian-desktop wiki page [1] evolved into a good resource for things
debian reviewers will most certainly pull on during the sarge review wave.
The DebianDesktopHowTo [2] tries to show how to get over some issues.
Would be better if it could work without a how-to though.

Thanks for the info. Fou

Ok, the man page suggests xdebconfigurator is capable to take the locales into
account when setting up the X keyboard.
The version that is in sarge did not seem to set the keyboard model for german
systems to pc105, and the Variant to nodeadkeys though.
Kind Regards,
Just a thought, maybe the "xdebconfiguratior" script-package is already
capable to set up X according to the locale? I did just a basic -core install
of X.

If it would be possible to provide daily PXE or Etherboot d-i images that

Hi *!
Another idea I'd like to throw in is to also keep an eye on m23 and coordinate
ideas.
m23 offers a complete software distribution system for debian.
If the remote job fetching could be made compatible, that would be really
great allowing standard d-i images to be distributed, installed a
Doing further installations and tests I find myself still not (yet) convinced
just by being told d-i will do the right thing. I have a cuple of questions,
maybe somone could help a bit.
In order to use and test sarge I did the installations from the prerelease

Hi!
found the MBR overwriten by another OS. I thought I could test to recover with

Installing grub or lilo needed to reenter the partition table, (which is ok)
but I couldn't figure out how to write the MBR without newly installing the
base-system. When selecting grub or lilo i
Unfortunately I have to confirm this. But I think it might not be a netcfg
issue but rather the duty of the dhcp-client to make sure the network config
is consistent as long the connection is under their supervision, and reverted
back to original state when stoping the dhcp-client.

I looked into this and around on the web. The observations I made where:
The hostname and domain in DHCP can be treated in two ways, polling the
hostname from the server or sending it so the DNS-server can be updated

I tested this with d-i beta3, I can confirm it works for the non-dhcp case.
/etc/hosts has a FQDN and the hostname as alias.
Calling hostname --fqdn works ok.
