Comments/Problems:

1. for french translators:
when i install network modules, the message displayed is 
'chargez les modules présents sur la disquette maintenant' 
but the floppy in the device is floppy-image.img, not net-drivers-image.img
so it's better to say: 'chargez les modules présents sur une autre disquette' for example

2. list of network modules is in reverse order

3. i have to call 3 times 'detect network hardware' to have the panel to enable me to 
enter options for network modules
the first time, it detects nothing (i have a dlink 220e and a cs89x0 card)
the second time , it rery again, nothing is detected by i have a red screen error with 
'modprobe -v ide-cd'
and the third time, i can config ne module but 'Ethenet card not found' (but i use the 
same options in woody and it works!)
4. when i want to rechange the language (to see for example, the translation in en_US), just after, it call 
hardware detection or 'configure the network', it depends on the position in the installation process.

5.when i select 'load drivers from a floppy', it access directly on the device with no message 
like 'install the floppy and press enter' for example

6. unable to go back in 'configure the network panel'

I don't understand this sentence. What do you mean and which order would
be the right one? Which list of network modules do you refer to?
the list is displayed when it tried to detect hardware and did not find, 
so it display a list to enable user to select manually a module.

the display is like this:
d
c
b
a  initial cursor position
instead of
a  initial cursor position
b
c
d

This is the effect of the automatic lowering of the debconf priority on
failure. The modprobe -v ide-cd error can be ignored.
Please try modprobeing the correct module in a shell on the second
console. 
but why there is the second step? At the first time, if nothing is 
detected , the next step is to display the options module panel. So this 
is done in two steps not in three.
Are these PCI cards? If yes and they are not detected correctly please
provide the output of lspci -v and lspci -n along with the relevant
kernel module so we can add them to the discover hardware list.
no i have a isa card (ne module) and a isapnp (cs89x0 module)

on woody, i can configure isapnp internal chip with isapnpdump and 
isapnp commands but i don't know how to configure an isapnp card with 
d-i, i will search later

for instance, i try to configure the isa dlink card)
