I used the NT bootloader because it is needed to preserve the function of the Thinkvantage button. Before the install I resized the windows partition using gpart from the sysresccd. I started the installer in expert mode. All the hardware checks went fine. We use DHCP and the installer set that up correctly. I made a 100 MB /boot partition and installed Grub on it. The rest of the free space I used for / and swap. I installed the 2.6.18-3 kernel. In the install additional software section I selected Base and Laptop, but not Desktop Before finishing the installation I used dd if=/dev/sda3 of=grub.mbr bs=512 count=1 to make a file grub.mbr from the /boot partition I copyed this file to the windows partition and pointed the NT bootloader at it to load Grub. Then Grub loads Debian. After these changes I rebooted the system and it came up fine. For some reason xfonts-base had not been installed (maybe because I did not check Desktop?) so X did not work.
