We are approaching the Debian 5.0 (Lenny) release and the Debian Installer team is working to fix the remaining issues for it. The Debian Installer Release Candidate 1 is being prepared and we are short in time to make fixes. The installer has a lot of new and impressive features against last Etch release and Lenny beta 2. For a better view of the changes made on the installer since last beta, take a look on our release announcement draft[1]. We are sure you are going to have a nice feeling about it. We count on you to help us! 1. http://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/ReleaseAnnounce How could I help Debian Installer team? ======================================= That is easy! Go to our development webpage[2], download the weekly builds or daily snapshots and give it a try! This is very important and simple way to help us since it is impossible for the team to try all possible configurations in different hardware sets. 2. http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/ After installing it, please do a proper installation report[3] to allow us to improve the installer and make it ready for Lenny release. 3. http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/manual/en.i386/ch05s03.html#submit-bug Thanks in advance, Otavio Salvador Debian Installer Release Team http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2008/09/msg00005.html
