Comments/Problems:
Right, well. This system only got two SATA drives. I can mount them from
the console fine, but Debian Installer does not list it. So I'm unable
to proceed the installation..
When I get to the "Partition method" step, It only gives me one option,
"Manually edit partition table",
so I proceed to that step..
On that step it displays this:
"Configure software raid"
"Configure the Logical Volume Manager"
"Guided partitioning"
"Help on partition"
(two blank entries)
"Undo changes to partitions"
"Finish partitioning and write changes to disk"
As I've understood, this step is supposed to list the harddrives I got,
but it does not.. And, as I've said before, the kernel itself supports
my SATA drives fine, since I can mount them sucsesfully manually by
using ALT+F2 to go to the console..

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.
