Just have a look at the log file entry when the step to add the mirror
fails. It says that the distribution "sid" cannot be found in the release
file. It might just be a matter of updating the regular expression which
checks the release name.
I recommend always checking the log file when a step fails while running
debian-installer. It's much better than just guessing ;-).
