Comments/Problems:
I got a grub error (I think it was 'cannot locate drive') upon reboot. The fix was to go into BIOS and set each IDE device to "detect". I found that with Google.
<Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments
and ideas you had during the initial install.>
You guys need to figure out a better task selection method -- it's awful.
Too general to be useful. It's possible to have too many tasks, but I think
you have too few.
Also, don't you want to have "dselect update" as an automatic part of the
install process? dselect seems to have a different view of what packages are
available.
Install logs and other status info is available in /var/log/debian-installer/.
Once you have filled out this report, mail it to submit@bugs.debian.org.

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.
