Dear Debian Installation-Report Team,
it seem that I found the problem that caused the Bug #248973 that I just
reported.
The debian-installer was scanning /dev/hda3 which contained directory
names with underscores and umlauts (created by the German WinXP
installation). Onse I removed these directories (presumably I could have
also renamed them), the installation from the usb-stick proceed nicely.
Hopefully the installer can be modified in a way that directory names with
unusual characters are not a problem any further.
Thank you very much.
Jan Gläscher
