Comments/Problems:
<Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments
and ideas you had during the initial install.>
Everything went well except the install of GRUB to the root partition. I have
had this problem installing GRUB with every Debian install I've done (using
the new installer). The initial attempt always fails. I can go back and
re-select 'install GRUB' and it will work fine the second time...installs
fine.
I would like to see a change on the 'Install the base packages' page. I would
like to see more information shown as to what is going on...info such as is
shown when using 'wget' or 'apt-get'...ie...name of package, # of bytes in
the package, # of bytes downloaded as the download proceeds, and the speed of
the download.
I do like the fact that the 'Install the base packages' routine is downloading
from the internet rather than the CD...getting the latest packages.

Apologies; this wasn't sent as part of the dak rm action. I'm doing
this by hand. Since this was manual, this opens the chance for me taking
action by mistake.
I got the list of bugs via UDD, and am closing via -close on BCC. I spot
checked about 10 of the bugs, and they're all src:grub. The COUNT
matches the tracker page, so I'm sending this.
If I have closed a bug that's not about bin:grub or src:grub, please do
re-open the bug.

We believe that the bug you reported is now fixed; the following
package(s) have been removed from unstable:
grub | 0.97-84 | source
grub-legacy | 0.97-84 | amd64, i386
------------------- Reason -------------------
ROM; dead upstream, replaced by grub2
----------------------------------------------
Note that the package(s) have simply been removed from the tag
database and may (or may not) still be in the pool; this is not a bug.
The package(s) will be physically removed automatically when no suite
references them (and in the case of source, when no binary references
it). Please also remember that the changes have been done on the
master archive and will not propagate to any mirrors until the next
dinstall run at the earliest.
Packages are usually not removed from testing by hand. Testing tracks
unstable and will automatically remove packages which were removed
from unstable when removing them from testing causes no dependency
problems. The release team can force a removal from testing if it is
really needed, please contact them if this should be the case.
We try to close bugs which have been reported against this package
automatically. But please check all old bugs, if they were closed
correctly or should have been re-assigned to another package.
Thank you for reporting the bug, which will now be closed. If you
have further comments please address them to [email protected].
The full log for this bug can be viewed at https://bugs.debian.org/1110934
This message was generated automatically; if you believe that there is
a problem with it please contact the archive administrators by mailing
