Nothing more to say about the installation itself: on this machine all worked well and the installation process was very easy. The French transaltion seems ok (even if I'm not French mother-language), probably when you choose the method for the installation, CD-Rom should be left as /CD-Rom/ and not translated as /c�d�rom/. I didn't try to install a desktop environment (I installed later the Xserver, GNOME and so on, manually selecting the packages I need and X11 automatically worked with the 'nv' open source driver), but I'd like to have the possibility to choose singolar component of the desktop environment. Let's say: [x] Desktop Environment [x] X server [x] GNOME [ ] KDE I mean, I don't like KDE and I want only GNOME: with the old woody installer system, if you choose DE to be installed, at the end you have X11, GNOME *and* KDE, while I'd like to have only X11 and GNOME. If this is already the case, please excuse me for my comments, while on the contrary this could be an improvement in the Debian-installer. Obviously, I could choose to install the DE and then manually select (or de-select) the KDE packages, but this is something not user-friendly. I can provide all the Install logs and other status info (available in /var/log/debian-installer/), with the lshal output, if needed.
