Hi there!

Sorry for the late reply. I've been away the last week and fly through all the mails now. Man, you guys were busy! :)

Hmm... I don't have time unfortunately, but I'm a bit concerned that
the guide doesn't show creating partitions, but rather just
initializing an entire disk to BFS. This seems like a really bad idea
- it should probably encourage the creation of an intel partition map,
and one partition at least... but I guess that's just my idealism for
using a "standard" setup :)

There's a description of Installer that links also to DriveSetup (which link, 
as I just
found out, is broken, oops) in the user guide. It may be a bit terse, but 
listing all
possible partition configurations doesn't seem to be desirable either...

Regards,
Humdinger
