so I had to make enough room on winbloze partition to copy the whole
installation tree over.
in Network Configuration Wizard: s/informations/information/
on a Laptop, I've mistakenly let it configure "internet access", and it
didn't let me out of "Which net driver shout I try ?" -- Cancel would just
get me to the same dialog box.
I had to click back on "configure networking" star, which made it green
and it went on to summary. After I clicked again "configure
networking" star, it now properly showed the dialog, where I unselected
all 3 options, and it went on to summary.
Hey ! Keyboard control throught the whole installation worked !!!
At Exit step, When I chose Advances and Gnererate autoinstall floppy,
Replay, tty3 said "getFile images/.img\nErrorOpeningFile
images/.img\nfailed to write /dev/fd0\n".
So I instead just saved the package selection.
Then it said "installation complete, leaving", "Restarting system.", and
my ThinkPad 770E *froze*. No tty switching worked, nothing. Not even
Ctrl-Alt-Del, so I had to power off/on.
However, boot from floppy didn't work, the laptop just showes "602" and
proceeded to boot from the HD. HD had grub, and I selected "floppy",
which said "Booting 'floppy'\n\nroot(fd0)\n Filesystem type ext2fs, using
whole disk\nchainloader +1\n\nError 13: Invalid or unsupported executable
format\n\nPress any key to continue..." which put me back into grub menu,
so I selected "linux". Which worked just great.
And reiserfs after reboot loaded !
Geat job, guys !

PS: Hmm, I don't remember it asking me for timezone, but I guess it must
have, as `date` is reporting correct timezone. But the installed files
show timestamps of GMT/UTC ! This might need fixing ?
PS2: at the end of /var/log/dmesg shows about 90 lines of:
clm-6006: writing inode 92157 on readonly FS
and syslog reports it 93 times.
PS3: and "portsentry" is going crazy; it keeps reporting "attackalert:
Possible stralth scan from unknown host to TCP port: 111 (accept failed)",
and it does so cca 17 times a minute (says /var/log/messages).
PS4: BTW, starting KDE's "advanced Editor" gives unreadable font.
