Base System Installation Checklist: [O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it Initial boot: [O] Detect network card: [O] Configure network: [O] Detect CD: [O] Load installer modules: [O] Detect hard drives: [X] Partition hard drives: [X] Install base system: [O] Clock/timezone setup: [O] User/password setup: [O] Install tasks: [O] Install boot loader: [O] Overall install: [X] Comments/Problems: I actually fixed the bug, so my installation was successful. But it wouldn't have been if I didn't.
Upon trying to load the ZFS module, the installer kicked me out to the main menu.  It happened to both the graphical installer and the text-based one.

I checked out the system log and found the error message:
/lib/partman/lib/zfs-base.sh
syntax error: unexpected "then (expecting ")")
Putting a single ) at the end of that line fixed the problem, and allowed the installation to continue.

Best Regards,
John
