tags 367861 + pending thanks Hi Clytie,
An old one, but that is what you get if you make them so long ;-) I've made changes based on most of your suggestions, but in some cases I prefer the original text. In quite a few cases I've done more of a rewrite than commit the changes your suggested. Some comments below. Thanks for the critical eye.

Does the > user need to understand what this means? n probably is a number; users familiar with the IA-64 architecture will know what it means. I'm generally a lot less critical about technical terms and not explaining enough when it comes to non-x86 (and to a lesser extend powerpc) architectures. > - You then need to IPL GNU/Linux from the DASD > + You then need to boot GNU/LInux from the DASD > > (using IPL isn't really necessary and just adds more acronyms for the > poor reader to handle). The poor user that does not know what an IPL is, has no business installing an S/390 mainframe (even if it is the hercules emulator :-) I've kept IPL. > There is no string: > <guimenuitem>network-console: Continue installation remotely using > SSH</guimenuitem> > in the Level 1 Debian-Installer file, only the > <guimenuitem>Continue installation remotely using SSH</guimenuitem>. > string. No, but that is how it is shown when you select the module for installation during "install additional components": udeb name + package description. I don't think it will be translated either...
