Comments/Problems:
On the first attempt, the progress bar was at 95% with the message
"Skipping unavailable module 'ide-floppy' for 'Linux IDE floppy'" when the
system locked up. I then rebooted, entering linux noapic at the boot
prompt with the same results. I then booted with linux DEBCONF_DEBUG=5
and switched to the output on Alt-F4. The last two lines were:
user.debug frontend: --> SUBST hw-detect/load_progress_step MODULE
ide-probe-mod
user.debug frontend: Adding [MODULE] ->[ide-probe-mod]
The last line on the output on Alt-F3 was
insmod 3c59x

I'm processing old installation reports, and have, finally, gotten to
yours. Thanks for talking the time to file an installation report.
I'm closing your installation report, which appeats to be due to a hang
during pcmcia startup. Newer versions of the installer prompt whether to
start pcmcia if run in expert mode, which should get you past the hang.
If you can, please try installing again using a current version of the
debian installer. I recommend the tc1 release, which you can find on our
web page, <http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/>. If you can, try
to reproduce the problems you reported using it, so we can verify that
they're all fixed. We look forward to your new installation report.
