Getting the initial debian installs 'nice' can be a bit of hardwork but if you have machines spare to practise on then you will get used to it quite quickly
I've been very impressed today at how neatly the current Debian stable installer goes onto modern hardware. I still had to tell it which video driver to use, but IIRC that can be cured by installing packages in a better order than all at once from tasksel. I'm also making a real effort to configure this system using only debconf and cfengine: and so far, it's working. Next trick will be getting the desktop onto it...
