Comments/Problems:

Cannot install base system. Install crashes when attempting to "chroot /target mount".
I copied mount from the install CD into /target/bin and the install progressed until
the installer tried to use dpkg. The install failed because dpkg was not installed into
/target.

I have attached /var/log/messages and /var/log/syslog
