Hello,
this problem has come up in Wheezy Beta 1, resulting from a regression
in the kernel. A fix is already worked on and will likely be in
Wheezy Beta 2. Until Beta 2 is released, you could try the daily
built netboot image at http://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/amd64/daily/netboot/mini.iso
which should not exhibit this problem.
