    Comments/Problems:

    <I didn't get to choose which kernel would be installed. That probably
    required booting with linux26 or expert. The kernel installed was ok,
    but for 386. Autodetect my 686 so I don't have install it later (ok I
    know, CD space limited). The questions asked were good; not too many, irrelevant or difficult. A control freak like me should have used
    expert, but I wanted to see how easy it can get. Thank you guys!>

    there is no 686 kernel on netinst cd. You can use the businesscard CD
    which is smaller and which gets deb by network. So it will autodetect
    and install 686 kernel.

    I think full CD will also have multiple kernel flavors.
