I recently did a businesscard install of the etch daily.
There were two unexpectedly long pauses in the later part of the
installation. I've seen these before, so they aren't just a fluke.
So I'm reporting them now.
The first was during Configuring
I booted my test beige G3 (oldworld) from the miboot floppies with
the July 30'th businesscard CD in the CDrom drive. I was also able

I assume this means that if I do whatever magic is required to get
en_US locale, then I'll get letter in /etc/papersize. What if I
