Comments/Problems:

<The installer was installing the base system.  It got to the point where the message was 
"Configuring  base-config...".  I got a red screen with the messages:[!!] Installing the base system
Installation step failed.  I tried with both the Rieser and ext3 file systems.  I had previously been running 
Debian Sarge with no problems.  After Sarge became the stable system, I decided to try apt-get upgrade and 
an apt-get dist-upgrade.  I could not successfully upgrade to Xorg.  I decide to start over with
the latest testing distribution.>

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.
