I have the same problem: I try to install on /dev/hdc.
I think the problem is in utilities/dinstall/select_not_mounted.c because of
int init_linux (void) {
struct fdisk_partition *p;
int cflag,status;
sync();
p=select_not_mounted(MSG_SELECT_INITIALIZE ,MSG_SELECT_PARTITION,1,FSTYPE_EXT2);
if (!p) return 1;
in utilities/dinstall/partition_config.c
N.B: note that the problem afflicts only init_linux in partition_config.c, but
not init_swap
