Base System Installation Checklist:

Initial boot worked:    [O]
Configure network HW:   [O]
Config network:         [O]
Detect CD:              [O]
Load installer modules: [O]
Detect hard drives:     [O]
Partition hard drives:  [O]
Create file systems:    [O]

Reboot:                 [O]
[O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it	

So far so good, then the problems start.
The aic79xx driver isn't loaded until after checkfs has run, thus failing to check and then mount the scsi drives. Choose to install package manually via apt rather than any of the semi automatic methods. After the system has finished and presented me with a login prompt I installed ssh then reboot the system (typing reboot at root prompt) and the box just gets as far as saying "Restarting System" and hangs there. Not much good on a server I want to mount miles away from anyone to press reset.
