Comments/Problems:
Video flickered then disappeared on a normal "install," but worked with
"install-safe." I tried creating the bootstrap partition both within the
partitioner and in mac-fdisk, and the partitioner moved to the next step
(install boot loader) which then complained that no partition of type
"Bootstrap..." existed (although it did). Also, when I chose to Continue
without boot loader from the menu, it informed me about the "missing"
bootstrap partition and referred to the Continue without boot loader as the
next step (w/o actually doing anything).

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.
