When you reboot, do Ctrl-Alt-F1 to get login window when the "Welcome" screen
comes up in preparation for finishing the configuration. Log in as root,
then do "rmmod i810-tco" (without quotes). Then go back to your welcome
screen and proceed. This will kill the timeout problem.
Interestingly, I did not get this when using the installer and installing the
2.6.7 kernel later.
The above is the same info that Joey gave, but maybe more usable at the point
you're at. This info also appears in question 14 of a FAQ buried somewhere
on the debian website.
