You can just cancel that step and move on. (But I am also dubious of its utility in most situations, and wish it weren't the default or that at least one was given a prompt first.) I think a better place to file this issue is as a bug report against debian-installer (and I suspect there may already be one). -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/>
