Comments/Problems:
<Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments
and ideas you had during the initial install.>
I started the installation with that CD. It seems all okay but after the installation of the base-system the installer turns back to the main-menu. Which is unusual because as I know the new debian-installer it leads me from point to point of the installation. This behavior of deposit me in the main-menu I know only form the old installer. And the point which was colored or activated by the installer was "installation of the base-system". So I took the next step and clicked on "create user and root password (or something like that) and this also worked. But after that I fall back on the point "installing a base-system".
I got a warning that the system is nood clean, there is data of an old installation and so on...
Form that point I never came forth! The installation stucks. I tried it with non-grafical-installation, but this has the same problem. I found later a CD with a 2-3 weeks old netinstall-image and I finished my installation allready. Is not a problem any more, but with that image I got an 08.26 is a problem. As I mentioned before, I tested the image with qemu and a installation on a virtual-harddisk, with the same result. So it has nothing to do with the HW.
I hope I could help to solve a problem. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask me.
Gruss Christian
