That's the device with PCI ID [1814:0781] in the hardware summary.
It seems that it is currently not supported by any free Linux drivers, and 
thus not by the Debian kernel.

See here for some info google found:

Known issue; see: http://bugs.debian.org/471892
Upgrading to the 2.6.25 kernel from unstable may well fix this.

Well, you're not really giving us anything useful either here...
My guess is that you are affected by the first erratum listed for the 
Beta2 release: http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/errata.

Please check (in the debug shell) the contents of /etc/fstab and compare 
that to what disk devices are being recognized (by listing contents 
of /dev/ or using the output of dmesg).
Also provide the output of 'echo $ROOT'.

Cheers,
FJP
