Output of lspci:
[sorry, since installation did not work I would have to copy manually...]

initial boot worked:	[O]
configure network hw:	[O]
configure network:	[E] - broadcom card did not work for dhcp (which
was no problem, when knoppix was used 1 hour ago), manual conf required.

Detect CD:		[O]
Load installer modules:	[O]
Detect hard drives:	[E] - sata_uli/libata/alim15x3 required and
available, but not loaded. manual load via console necessary, then once
again run debian-installer hw-detect - then sata drive was found
Partition hard drives:	[E] - No problem during partitioning, but
installer didn't move to next step, after formatting the partitioning
screen is shown again.

Mount partitions:	[E] - had also to be done manually
Install base system:	[O] - means, no error messages shown...
Install boot loader:	[O]
Reboot:			[E] - kernel panic (pivot_root: no such file or
directory; /sbin/init: 432: cannot open dev/console: No such file; Kernel
panic: Attempted to kill init!


Comments/Problems: already mentioned in table - will try again tomorrow...
Without "acpi=off" --> instantanous kernel panic of the installer

Have an older installer (approx. 2 weeks ago) which was not capable to
find the sata-drive anyway...

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.
