        Detecting disks and all other hardware
        Detecting hardware, please wait...2%
        Loading module 'esp' for 'ESP SCSI'...
which is the right module for my disks.

The system has no keyboard, do not know if it is possible to switch
to other VTs. Tried some keys, no luck. Magic SysRq it not working,
sending a break takes me to the ok prompt.
Booting with BOOT_DEBUG=3 or 2 did not reveal anything more.

We are closing this installation report for one of the following
reasons:
- it was reported with a pre-lenny version of Debian
  Installer.
- indications in the installation report give the feeling that
  the reported problem waslying in another software, unrelated to
  D-I, which we can't easily identify.
- indications in the installation report suggest that it may have been
  fixed in a more recent version of a D-I component
- it was successful and we forgot closing it..:-)
- it has no information we consider useful


The D-I team is currently in the process of cleaning out the old spool
of installation reports that haven't bene processed yet. 

In case you think that the problem you reported has chances to be
still present, please reiterate your installation test with
a more recent image of D-I, if you're in position of doing this.

You'll find daily builds at
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer. We recommend you choose
the netboot image, in the "daily builds section", then choose to
install "squeeze" when prompted.

If some problems are found, please report them with a new bug sent
against installation-reports.

Many thanks for your understanding and your help improving Debian,
past and present.
