This has nothing to do with vga settings.
The problem is that the initrd does not load all modules necessary to
mount the / partition.
We will need more information on the system and the installation (like:
what is the IDE controler; was RAID or LVM used) to find out what is
missing.
You can also try the latest _daily_ netinst build from:
http://www.nl.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/
It's possible the problem has been fixed in the mean time.
More probable is that it needs the most recent initrd-tools to fix this,
which is still in sid and so not included yet on the netinst CD (AFAIK).
