Hi!

I have tried the daily build netinst CD image from 30.11.2006, which
gave me the error above. After that I used the netboot image (also daily
build) and succeeded with the installation.

I have checked the first (netinst) image and in the folder
/pool/main/m/mdadm there is only one package, mdadm-udeb_2.5.6-6_i386.udeb.
