Comments/Problems:
As you can see, the installation worked perfectly. However, *after* the installation, fstab was not set up completely correctly. The first on-bard sata disk was put onto /dev/hde1 and the second on /dev/hdg1 (note h denoting ide interface). After some searching, I discovered that these drives were actually on /dev/sde1 and /dev/sdf1 respectively. The Debian installer detected the drives properly and was able to format them. It somehow ended up writing them as ide devices into fstab though, which didn't work.

This bug is tagged "moreinfo" for more than two years.  I am thus
closing it.
