Comments/Problems:
This was a wonderful experience. I am a first-time debian user
and thoroughly enjoyed this proces. I had my system up and
running in about 15 minutes!
There was, however, one problem. X-windows was configured
incorrectly. If I did not have prior experience with my video
card, this would have been an issue.
Thanks for the wonderful installer!
