Sorry, Sam, that your install report got unanswered.... To get deeper into this, we might need a few more details. What installer image were you using, exactly? Was this a daily built image downloaded from http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer? If so, what image was this? I would strongly recommend using the netboot (not netinst, netboot) image as of now, or eventually the businesscard image. Then, what branch of the distribution were you installing? Was this the default (thus "testing") or was this unstable (that can be done by passing "mirror/suite=unstable" at the boot prompt, or in expert install)? If you can, can you redo this install by installing unstable?
