Comments/Problems:
On the destination disk, beside the USB boot device, I also had older
version of install ISO.
The installer took the ISO from the disk in precedence before trying to
load it from my USB flash disk.
That resulted in impossibility to load modules and detect hardware
(including network devices).
Firstly I was trying to install directly to an /dev/md0, which installer
set up correctly. Also
XFS creation produced no error. ButInstall base system hung up. After
some tries I finnaly got
to a boot loader installation, I chose GRUB, but another unrecoverable
hung occured.
Finnaly I had to install the system to a small (2 GiB) partition, using
ext2, without trying to setup
software RAID, and using LILO as boot loader. Then I set up /dev/md0,
copied system, installed
GRUB and changed the 2 GiB partition type to swap.
Install logs and other status info is available in
/var/log/debian-installer/.

We are closing this installation report for one of the following
reasons:
- it was reported with a pre-lenny version of Debian
Installer.
- indications in the installation report give the feeling that
the reported problem waslying in another software, unrelated to
D-I, which we can't easily identify.
- indications in the installation report suggest that it may have been
fixed in a more recent version of a D-I component
- it was successful and we forgot closing it..:-)
- it has no information we consider useful
The D-I team is currently in the process of cleaning out the old spool
of installation reports that haven't bene processed yet.
In case you think that the problem you reported has chances to be
still present, please reiterate your installation test with
a more recent image of D-I, if you're in position of doing this.
You'll find daily builds at
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer. We recommend you choose
the netboot image, in the "daily builds section", then choose to
install "squeeze" when prompted.
If some problems are found, please report them with a new bug sent
against installation-reports.
Many thanks for your understanding and your help improving Debian,
past and present.
