Wheezy: Error erasing partition for encryption



Hello,

I'm trying to install Debian Wheezy on a brand new ThinkPad X230 with
Intel 180 GB SSD. I do manual partitioning and create an encrypted
root partition (among others). The Installer asks if the data should be
erased, I say yes and then it starts. After a few minutes, an error
screen appears saying that there was an error while erasing. (see
screenhsot attached)

The syslog (see the attached log files) contains some

Sep  6 05:36:32 kernel: [ 1481.327388] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Unhandled
error code 

Sep  6 05:36:32 kernel: [ 1481.327389] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda]
Result: hostbyte=DID_BAD_TARGET driverbyte=DRIVER_OK 

Sep  6 05:36:32 kernel: [ 1481.327391] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] CDB:
Write(10): 2a 00 04 03 99 98 00 00 08 00 

Sep  6 05:36:32 kernel:[ 1481.327395] end_request: I/O error, dev sda,
sector 67344792

The intel SSD Check tool (Intel SSD Toolbox - v3.0.3.exe), badblocks &
smartctl does not report any problems with the SSD.

I tried the following images:

debian-wheezy-amd64-efi-test4.iso
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/wheezy_di_beta1/amd64/iso-cd/

I then tried with the Squeeze installer image 
debian-6.0.5-amd64-netinst.iso and it worked with no problem!

Any help?

Greg
