This does not have to be an error but it sure stopped me from completing the installation: The installation recognized my two networkcards (via rhine and sis900) but said those drivers weren't available and I had to install them from a driver-disc. Unfortunately the documentation wasn't very forthcoming on how to make a driver disc and neither was anyone I could find on IRC. I'm not exactly sure how to describe this step but it's basically a progress bar working its' way across the screen while hardware detection is being done: It took a very long time to get by "Linux IDE detect" and when it finally did the progress bar moved an inch only to pause again while trying to detect my cdrom drive (which I find odd since it obviously had no problems booting from it). When finally getting to choose installation medium the network option wasn't available and the CDs I put into the cdrom drive couldn't be detected.
