Hello,
we've got an installation repport in french stating the same kind of problem
on debian-l10n-french.
It looks like that the IDE kernel modules were missing since going back,
selecting them and retrying did the trick. Before that, it did state
something like "here is the liste of partitions"

Hello,
We've received an installation repport in French on debian-l10n-french.

I'm sorry, but the installed size is not something you can rely on here,

Hi there, and sorry for the cross-post.
We got an installation report in french on the list debian-l10n-french (don't
ask why there). It seems that the used version was, erm, a bit outdated.
I guess it's because the user was wrongly pointed to the ftp.fsn.hu unofficial

Hello,
I'm pleased to see that boot-floppy is translated in yet another language,
and hope that the maintainer will do whatever is needed to get this in the
CVS and next releases.
But I'm optimistic by nature, and think that the next released version of
Debian will use the modern debian-installer

Hello,
Here is a patch to the makefile of dbootstrap/po dir, to check against too
long messages. It relies on comments to the translators of the good format,
and that could be improoved.
Can I commit it, or do you have any objections ?

I understand it's a good thing to do a make update-po once a while, but last

Hello,
In kbdconfig.c, the lists take adjectives and noun together, like "Belgium"
or "Germany" and "Bulgarian Cyrillic" or "Danish". I think it would be
better to turn everything to adjectives, like "german". But I don't know the
english world for "Belgium". "Belgish" ? "Belgiumish" ? ;)
