Points to note: 1. A summary of what filesystems are going to have what done to them would have been nice. I had to go back and look to check that I wasn't going to inadvertently clobber /home or /usr/local. 2. At the "install the bootloader" stage I was not prompted for any information, and the device name was given in long notation. I didn't get to add my other operating system to the bootloader menu. I would also suggest picking one bootloader and going with it. I'd suggest GRUB for this. (Obviously platforms like SPARC, PA-RISC and Alpha don't have this issue) 3. baseconfig never seemed to get around to editing /etc/inittab to change what should end up on vt1; I had to make this change myself to stop baseconfig from continually respawning.
