The virtual console 3 told: E: Couldn't find package kernel-pcmcia-modules-2.6.3-1-386 Install boot loader: Any further step e.g installing the grub bootloader denied working and stepped back to install the base system until the error is repeated and this leads to an interactive infinite loop. As I have an IBM compatible PC with no PCMCIA nor cardbus this is an unescessary module to be loaded. I don't understand why the install procedure insists on doing so and I wonder why at all because there is no such hardware to be found at my system.
