Yes, by chance I already made some changes while processing a bug report from Clytie. I have not applied your patch for parameters.xml as I think that is not the correct place for it. The DEBIAN_FRONTEND parameter is after all not the regular method to boot the graphical installer (and "install DEBIAN_FRONTEND=gtk" will in fact not even work). Instead we need a separate section earlier in the manual (installation methods chapter probably, or maybe for Etch a separate appendix) where this should be documented. I have also not applied your patch for lomem.xml as you sent it, but rather used the ideas you included to add to the existing text. Thanks a lot, having your text made it much easier. To be perfectly honest, your text also contained quite a few grammatical errors and would have had to be edited anyway (if you'd like a review of your original text feel free to mail me privately). The new text has been committed. Comments welcome. Cheers, FJP
