Comments/Problems:
the base system crash when it tries to install kernel :
kernel-image-2.4.25-1-386
press virtual consol 3
The module list has been changed and modules.dep need to be rebuild.
it says : I have to reboot in order for the modules file to be created
correctly.
I tryed to finish the installation, but there is no grub or lilo, so the
server doesn t boot.

Thank you for your feedback, Sebastian. I will close this one, but at=20
the same time, I have cloned off your report to the developers=20
responsible for the grub-installer component.
I have tagged the cloned off report with 'moreinfo', because I think it=20
may be relevant to know how your partitions were set up. Also, I=20
believe you should be able to find extra information=20
in /var/log/debian-installer about why grub failed.
Thank you for your time.
