Known problem with the vanilla installation disks.

Please try the other CDs. If your admin does know his job, the
additional CDs should contain different boot flavors, and one of them is
idepci, designed for such bitchy systems.

If you want to install Woody and play the beta tester for the future
kernel-2.4 installation flavor, please visit
http://people.debian.org/~blade/bf2.4/. There is a small ISO image with
Kernel and Driver disks, which you can burn on a CDRW and boot from it.

Gruss/Regards,
Eduard.
