Method: Installed HDD into laptop, installed from 1.44M floppy images
then installed via PCMCIA network through debian.goldweb.com.au/debian,
not proxied. After initial install complete moved HDD into target laptop
as target laptop didn't have enough ram for the installer (only 16M).

Comments/Problems:
The IDE drivers are on the fdd image marked as cd-drivers, this disk
should be marked as ide-drivers or somthing more generic. Once loaded
drivers from cd-drivers for the IDE the installer still expects to find
a debian CD, this should be optional, I had to force the installer to
continue without the CD.

No, the problem is that you seem to have been mixing installation methods.
If you want to install from the network, you should _not_ use the
cd-drivers floppy, but only the net-drivers floppy. The ide-drivers
needed to access your HD will be automatically loaded from the network
later.
Using the cd-drivers floppy makes the installation system look for an
installation CD to load additional installer components from (instead of
from the network), so the name of that floppy is correct.
Closing your installation report as there were no other issues. (Note: you
can still react to this mail and if our conclusion is wrong the report
can be reopened.)
Cheers,
FJP
