Day five - Configuring Debian GNU/Linux 6.0.5 "squeeze"

Re-installed Debian GNU/Linux 6.0.5 "squeeze" this evening and went through all four days of documented changes in about one hour. What a difference good documentation makes.

The install process went through it's normal hiccup with detecting network hardware...I modified check-missing-hardware as before, then it seemed to get stuck again during detection of the hard drive. I switched to Ctrl + Alt + F4 to watch the system messages, and noticed the kernel time out several times in a row. Then the install started moving forward again.

Investigating why my hard drive seems to continuously click when parking the head.
