I had a similar problem using the current daily build of the installer (7.2.2006, i386). I installed on a FujitsuSiemens Esprimo 5600 with SATA harddisk. Installation went fine with no problems at all. But the final reboot failed with something like this as the last visible message: pivot_root: No such file or directory /sbin/init: 432: cannot open /dev/console: No such file Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init! My workaround was to use the same installer to boot a rescue system. A started a console in the already installed system and changed /etc/apt/sources.list to an unstable mirror. I finally installed the current linux-image-k7 (2.6.15) and rebooted. The reboot went fine. No errors at a first glance.
