I wanted to do a net install, but could not connect directly to the Internet with this computer. I had to network to a second computer and use that as a gateway. 2) I have a parallel printer, but udev refused to create the lp0 device node. 3) The Ali M5451 audio controller is using ALSA, but the ALSA support packages were not automatically installed. After experiencing sound problems, I finally figured out that these packages were necessary for proper operation. 4) I used tasksel (desktop environment) for automatic package selection. Both KDE and Gnome were installed. It might be better to allow the user to choose which one(s) to install and not be forced into having both.
