Comments/Problems: USB keyboard is non-functional, so installation is
impossible. Boot image 'expert' works. But 'expert' does not find the SATA
harddisk. Fedora Core 5 has none of these problems with kernel 2.6. I guess
the module ata_piix is not loaded by expert and the USB modules not by
expoert26.

You have tried to install Debian Sarge, which used the 2.6.8 kernel. 2.6.8
is known to have only very limited SATA support.
Please try the installer for Etch instead [1]. That currently uses 2.6.17
which should solve your issues.
Closing your report as your issues are well known and documented.
Cheers,
FJP
