I booted with two options: linux26 and debconf/priority=medium. I understand why you've chosen to default to high priority and not ask, but I think that it is possible to craft an easy to understand question to allow selection of the debconf priority level without confusing the target audiance. The apt configuration gave me the option of stable/testing/unstable as my distro. Wouldn't it make more sense to use the release codenames instead? That way I can install sarge now in the test phase, and stay with sarge once it becomes stable without having to worry about changing my apt config. One issue; I was asked if the PCMCIA driver should be enabled three times (I'm pretty sure it was the same question) during the install. Each time I said no, as my machine has no PCMCIA slot. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
