   <title>Saving the installation logs</title>

<para>

If the installation is successful, the logfiles created during
the installation process will be automatically saved to
<filename>/var/log/installer/</filename> on your new
Debian system.

</para><para>

Choosing <guimenuitem>Save debug logs</guimenuitem> from the main
menu allows you to save the log files to a floppy
disk<phrase condition="etch">, network, hard disk, or other
media</phrase>. This can be useful if you encounter fatal problems
during the installation and wish to study the logs on another system
or attach them to an installation report.
