I've committed a fix for this in our repository. The next daily builds
should boot correctly.

I assume you used the graphical installer. There are some options to
support other mouse types than standard PS/2, but if those don't work
then I'm afraid your mouse is just not supported.
See documentation for mouse/protocol and mouse/device at
http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/manual/en.i386/ch05s02.html#installer-args
Thanks for your report.
