(fpons)verify the free space is big enough.

(fpons)pb with dependencies ``missing'': icewm do not require XFree86 and so you can have icewm but no X server

XFdrake chooseResolutions with ask_from_list do not permit ``Show all''

have a better time estimation of the remaining time in install packages

smaller zsh (or ash in initrd)

initrd in bzip2

(pix)options in mkfs, progress bar when formatting

aha152x needs "insmod aha152x.o aha152x=0x140,11,7"

eg: SIS6326 needs "no_bitblt" "no_bltimage" and 24bpp instead of 32bpp
