Yeah, never got my head around preseed and its DEFICIENCIES. Like no lvm 
over mdraid support. Although that might have been solved now in 
debian-installer.

Oh, and they only recently got multi-arch support i think or are they 
still working on it?

Speaking of Ubuntu, yeah, Ubuntu has nice big repositories but not all 
the packages are Canonical supported and so you can get stuff that are 
raw deals.

Yup, real good reasons to move to Ubuntu "LTS"
