Re: Debian installers.

I'm telling you this stuff so you don't have to read the readme file, 
it's actually an installation guide which is lots larger than a readme

Without moving the debconf priority to low, you have to edit /etc/apt/sources.list post-install to get the non-free packages searched for later.

After choosing language, why not hit the < key until you get onto the main menu and select save log files and save them to a mounted file system installer will offer /mnt on the hard drive.  Then change the debconf priority to low and once that's been done go back to installing with the next default step on the main menu.
