* For `branch grub`:
"cp /usr/lib/grub/i386-pc /boot/grub" has two issues:
1. i386-pc is a directory, so we need `cp -r ...`
2. /boot/grub already exists, so we now have /boot/grub/i386-pc

* Setting up GRUB:
"/boot/grub/menu.lst"... succeeded:
Yet there is no /boot/grub/menu.lst copied over. When I reboot, I just  
get the grub > prompt.

Running:
   grub > kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22 root=/dev/hda1 ro
   grub > boot

Worked.

* fsck.xfs missing
fsck: fsck.xfs: not found
/sbin/fsck: Error 2 while executing fsck.xfs for /dev/hda1

I only see the following fsck's:
   fsck
   fsck.cramfs
   fsck.ext2
   fsck.ext3
   fsck.minix

The installer reported jfs, reiserfs, and xfs as supported filesystems.

* Kernel tree 2.6.22 does not exist
The kernel tree for the currently built kernel is not under /usr/src  
(which is empty). There is the source for the kernel (and a patch) in  
/var/spool/sorcery, but the tree used to build the existing kernel  
should (IMO) exist.

Otherwise, this install went very well, thanks! :)

/me hoping for the "GUI" coming back, some day
