Comments/Problems:

I got the same problem as #275465
(http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=275465),
but I managed to success the installation as follows.

The first time reboot (just after cdrom boot) succeeds, but
unfortunately the next reboot fails due to two reasons.
The first one is that the kernel hangs around hwclock at startup (and
also shut-down).  The second one is that the system fails to detect
the network device.

So once the installation process ends, you have to work the two issues
below.

For the first one, follow the instruction of 
http://craige.mcwhirter.com.au/blog/archive/2005/01/25/issues_installing_ubuntu_410_w#body
You must edit the following files:
  /etc/init.d/hwclock.sh
  /etc/init.d/hwclockfirst.sh
  /usr/sbin/tzsetup
Add `--directisa' option to every occurence of `hwclock' command.

For the second one, you have to remove tg3 driver from and install
bcm5700 to the kernel.  Get the `bcm5700-source' package and install
it.  Then reconfigure kernel to remove both `tg3.ko' and `eth1394.ko'
modules.  Append `alias eth0=bcm5700' to the /etc/modutils/arch/i386
and run update-modules and depmod.

That's all.
Hope this report helps you.
