Comments/Problems:
Booting with the 2.4 kernel failed.
The first install attempt was by booting the 2.4 kernel from CD. After
selecting Country and Language, the installer hung at "Loading module
'sd_mod' for SCSI disk support..." (I do have a 120GB SATA disk which I
will use for another install later).
Booting with linux26 succeeded and correctly gave three ethernet interfaces:
eth0: NVidia Corp nForce2
eth1: Galileo Tech Ltd. Yukon Gigabit Ethernet
eth2: Firewire ethernet
Partition table was manually edited to re-use the partitions from a
previous Debian install.
Selected "Desktop" in 2nd stage and got working video (ATI Radeon 9600
Pro) and working sound, too.

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.
