Actually, before I tried beta4 I tried tc1, and with both the 2.4 and 2.6 kernels the laptop locked up hard ealy in the boot process around the point where the message "Setting up filesystem, please wait ..." is printed. After I encountered this, I wasn't able to find mention of tc1 on the debian-installer page so I assumed that it was removed and that beta4 was the latest non-daily one to try. Maybe I should try one of the daily builds.

Yes, please do that. Note that there are two types of daily images -
sarge_d-i and sid_d-i.

I just downloaded the daily netinst ISO for Sarge from http://cdimage.debian.org/pub/cdimage-testing/daily/i386/current/. The date on the file is 2004-07-02. It locks up the laptop similar to tc1. I will submit a separate installation report for this.

The last few boot message lines for the 2.4 kernel are:
VFS: mounted root (ext2 filesystem).
Trying to move old root to /initrd ... okay
Mounted  devfs on /dev
Freeing unused kernel memory: 92k freed
Setting up filesystem, please wait ...
NET4: Unix domain sockets 1.0/SMP for Linux NET4.

The last few boot message lines for the 2.6 kernel are:
VFS: mounted root (ext2 filesystem).
Trying to move old root to /initrd ... okay
Mounted  devfs on /dev
Freeing unused kernel memory: 200k freed
Setting up filesystem, please wait ...
NET: Registered protocol family 1


With and without cardmgr running, "pcic_probe -m -k" returns nothing at all. Nothing is printed and nothing gets put to syslog or dmesg. When I add the -v option I get:
ident(0) = 0x82 ident(1) = 0x82 ident(2) = 0xff

OK. What does it print when i82365 is not loaded?

When i82365 is not loaded it gives exactly the same results.
