Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: debian-installer
- installer refused to start as there was less than 31M free in =/boot= (50M
partition)
- I manually cleared out backup files so =/boot= had 34M free and
restarted the installer, it was happy to proceed
- installer downloaded *both* the *386* and *generic* kernels, overfilled
=/boot=, was unable to generate initrd files.
- only able to boot with *386* kernel until I manually cleared more
space in =/boot= and regenerated initrd files.
- NVidia driver only appears to have been made available for *386*
kernel, my carefully composed dual-screen setup under 7.10 vanished
and many restarts and reconfigures later, I have a replica of it,
but only if I boot under *386*. If I boot into the *generic* kernel,
it reconfigures X for me to use the vesa driver, which then
persists if I boot back into the *386* kernel.
** Affects: debian-installer (Ubuntu)
