Comments/Problems:
Partitioning:
I tried to use LVM with 20M PALO 
4.2G LVM
but got a message that the current kernel doesn't support the Logical Volume Manager. You may need to load the lvm-mod module. | I redid the partitions using ext3 as shown above. 

Install base system:
Unable to install the selected kernel. An error was returned while trying to install the kernel into the target system. | 
Kernel package: 'kernel-image-2.4.25-64-smp'.
I've no idea why the installer was going for a 64-bit SMP kernel. Although the C360 will run hpux 64-bit, I get a kernel panic if I boot with linux64. There is only one CPU. I tried install on a K410 yesterday and it errored at the same point going after the same kernel. That box (K-410) will not run 64-bit for sure. 

Here's part of /var/log/messages from an installer shell.

depmod: ELF file /lib/modules/2.4.25-64-smp/kernel/net/xfrm/xfrm_user.o not for this architecture
There was a problem running depmod.  This may be benign,
(You may have versioned symbol names, for instance).
Or this could be an error.
       depmod exited with return value 1
In any case, since depmod is run at install time,
we could just defer running depmod
Would you like to abort now? [Yes] dpkg: error processing kernel-image-2.4.25-64-smp (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
kernel-image-2.4.25-64-smp
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Hope this helps.

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.
