Validating tasksel... Debootstrap Error Couldn't download tasksel.
Well, you haven't changed the Packages file on your installation medium, with which debootstrap verifies the integrity of the packages it installs (it checks for possible data corruption). I do not have any media at hand, but look for it (it is usually gzipped) and change the md5sum for tasksel to the value you compute with md5sum for the deb.
Hope that helps, Philipp Kern
