Comments/Problems:

After choosing from the "Debian installer main menu" the option "Install
the base system", it download's, unpacks and installs many things OK,
for about 15 minutes, and then after choosing the kernel, and given the
option to choose "initramfs-tools" or "yaird", whichever of the two I
choose, it fails critically, unable to proceed, I tried repeating this
step several times, it just returns to "Debian installer main menu"
after the failure. I hope the attached gzipped /var/log/syslog will give
you what failed. I tried three times, in the attached log the error is
at:

Oct 24 20:37:21
Oct 24 20:54:13
