this is half solved with the daily build I have just doanloaded:
with linux26, after network configuration, I have a red screen "Detect
hardware / Installation step failed", I have to manually select "Load
installer components from CD" and select "disk-detect"

then I choose "Detect disks" and I have to manually select the "ahci"
module.
I then have the following warning:
Partition disks
This partitionner doesn't have information about the default type of
partition tables on your architecture. Please send an e-mail message to
debian-boot@lists.debian.org with information.
Please not that if the type of partition table is unsupported by
libparted, then this partitionner will not work properly.
What kind of information do you need?
I can erase the actual partition table as I don't want to use ms
windows.
Can I create a new partition table safely? i.e. of course, I will lose
all actual data but what about the new one? I'm not sure I understand
"this partitionner will not work properly", does that mean it can break
the actual data or that even the new partition table may not work
properly?

Nicolas
