Comments/Problems:
There is an incompatibility between the kernel and my hardhare.
This prevents me booting on most normal ways - e.g. using knoppix or
Debian default boot methods.
I managed to boot knoppix, using the failsafe option.
Debian should also have a way to omit utilizing some of my hardware,
to help the system boot on kernel incompatibilities.

The boot image (and all other boot debian images I tried) did not work.
The system crashed on loading some kernel modules.
I booted using knoppix, formatted the partitions, and used the bootstrapping
to install the system from the network.

I understand that this is a kernel problem, so I tried all other availabe (precompiled) versions of the kernel, but the module still crashes the system.
I include later information about this problem (with one of ythe versions of the kernel)

In order to be able to boot later, I had to prohibit loading the i810_audio module.
Every time Debian rebuilds the modules.conf file, my system is not bootable, and I have to boot using knoppix to correct this (alias i810_audio off).

Install logs and other status info is available in /var/log/debian-installer/.
Once you have filled out this report, mail it to submit@bugs.debian.org.

Here is how I can reproduce the problem, and

Here is more information on my modem, that I think causes the problem
(possibly together with the sound card):

UPDATE=2005_Jan_11
ONLY use scanModem downloaded as: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/scanModem.gz

 ./scanModem should ONLY be run within a Linux/UNIX partition.
   If within a MicroSoft/DOS partition, abort with Ctrl-C now !!!
   Copy scanModem.gz to your Linux partition and restart.

 The soft modem Subsystem operates under a controller
   8086:24c6 82801DB ICH4 
 capable of supporting under Linux AT LEAST modem Subsystem chips from manufacturers:
	Broadcom
	AgereSystems
	Conexant
	Intel
	Smartlink
 The modem has a Conexant codec: CXT
 and there is support for the modem controller: 8086:24c6 82801DB ICH4 
 
 Some Linux Distributions include the hsfmodem driver.
 Search your packages information for "hsfmodem" and "Conexant".
 If not found there, download a hsfmodem package from http://www.linuxant.com .
 
 If there is not an exact match with your Linux distribution and your kernel version: 2.4.27-1-386
   then kernel-sources must be prepared as described in Modem/DriverCompiling.txt
   before the hsfmodem driver compiling can be successfull.
   Get and install hsfmodem drivers from http://www.linuxant.com

  Please browse the folder Modem/ containing the following files:
1stRead.txt
DriverCompiling.txt
General.txt
ModemData.txt
Rational.txt

Let me know if you need more information on my system.
