Hi
Not really. I'm working with Debian Sarge.
I first noticed this when trying out UBUNTU Debian.
First I thought this could be some sort of idiosyncrasy of ubuntu. But 
this happened also with sarge.
Well, after some 4 reinstalls, I had a look at the BIOS and tried this 
change from auto to LBA.
It worked!
Hope this is of some help to solving your problem.
