Comments/Problems:
Network card - default kernel in Lenny doesn't support Atheros L1e Ethernet 10/100/1000 Mb/s card Partitioning HDD - using dmraid - everything is ok beside the fact that during creating a partition manually there is no possibility to set anything - not even mount point 
automatic partitioning works fine, however.
Debian Installer is going into right direction, over past 8 years most of annoying things were fixed. Adding some more advanced support for SATA Raid would be nice as many people use both Linux and Windows on the same machine and like to benefit from controller provided soft raid.
There is one small glitch in the expert installer mode [text] - When installer ask on some steps for loading pcima modules, after selecting "no", the installer still ask for parameters 
for those modules despite of not loading them.

best regards

Recently the support for dmraid in partman has been improved significantly 
and some issues with grub installations have been fixed.
I expect this will have also fixed the problem you had.

Please see http://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/SataRaid for current 
status and instructions for installing Debian on a Serial ATA RAID 
device.
