Comments/Problems:

Disk partitioner was a bit confusing, had to do it a few times 
before I figured it out. I wanted to create my own partition 
setup. The default with all in one partition works OK. 

In "Debianin peruskokoonpanon asetukset" text is wider than 80
characters so lines are cut at beginning and end. This is the screen
where user chooses between tasksel, aptitude, dselect for installing
more packages. I can provide screenshot if needed. 

In first virtual console I got error:

Info: Switching console charset mapping to ISO-8859-15
set_kernel_font: Virheellinen argumentti
The console is inactive, but virtual console 2 and other work.

Don't know yet why this is, I run Finnish locale. 

X Window did not start, I chose /dev/gpmdata as mouse device, but 
gpm was not installed. I installed it by hand and did gpmconfig, then 
restarting X worked. 

After shutdown and reboot I noticed name service is no longer
working. The file /etc/resolv.conf is empty. I remember reading bugs
related to this so maybe it is being repaired. 

Also mouse did not work after shutdown reboot, gpm is not running. If
I start it with /etc/init.d/gpm start mouse works. Did not see why 
it is not started at boot. 

Install logs and other status info is available in /var/log/debian-installer/.

I think Bug #251925 (gpm fails to start at boot time with kernel 2.6.x)
is the same as #298197, which we just fixed in gpm 1.19.6-20.  The fix
is a hack, to be sure, but it's reported to work fine.

If I'm wrong and 1.19.6-20 does not fix this issue, please reopen the
bug and we'll try to track it down.

Thanks,
Peter
