Comments/Problems:

The Sid installation went even smoother than the Sarge installation the day before.

(1)OS-prober correctly recognized the linux on hda as SuSE 9.0 and the Win98 on hda and WinXP on hdc, but misinterpreted the OS/2 on hda as yet another Win98/ME/2000. However, I was only able to boot Sid or SuSE, not Win or OS/2.

After reboot and tasksel, installation went through with remarkably few questions and yielded a fully functional desktop system. Only flaw was the slightly incorrect Grub setup for Win98 and OS/2.

Hello,

Can't find what you're looking for?X

There're too few people using OS/2 to justify this to be added by default on Debian Installer. Adding it as an optional module would require manual intervation from the user and then it would be never used et all.

I'm closing this bug. If you or someone else, disagrees from it, please reopen it and justify it.

Thanks in advance,
