Oh one more item.  It would be nice to have a progress 
indicator between the Looking for Available Packages to the 
actual selection screen.

It takes a LONG time on a 300Mhz Pentium based system.  So 
long that one might think the install had stopped.  The 
hazards of writing in perl...

Moreso the hazards of having thousands of packages dependent on one another. 
The dependency tree is a nightmare, and yet still not as complete as it 
should be.

 1.  After the installer does it's detection of disk interfaces it has the
 message:
 
 Do you have any disk/scsi interfaces?
 
 The is poorly worded ( and changed from Beta 2 I think ).
 
 It should ask Do you have any additional disk/scsi interfaces.  It should also
 show what interfaces it found, much like the network interface display.

It displays so because it did not find any scsi interface.

 
 2.  No icons on the package selection screen ( even in cooker syncd August
 18th am US Pacific std time. )

done on purpose (i already posted about this)

I'm hoping the phrasing of that dialog changes.  It's could 
be kind of frightening for a newbie.

Yes I know html redirections.

What I don't want to mess with, is the internals of webmin in order to
wait for an additional insecure connection on the same port.
