Surely my intention was not to put d-i into a bad light or to claim that openSUSE is better. Of course every distro has its strengths, and Debian is top on most. I did not mean to start a flame war, but to suggest to give openSUSE's installer a try, just to see how it works. Maybe some ideas (like the "big" configuration window instead of asking for [OK] or [BACK] on every screen) can be useful for Debian, too. Just hoping to make the good even better.
