No help here. Mine works :-(
Well, maybe I can. The rc?.d directories are owned by sysvinit. Check to
see if that package is installed correctly. (dpkg -s sysvinit). Or run
dselect - it shows unconfigured packages at the top of the list.

You will have to make the partitions yourself, but having made them you
can mount them easily from within the installation menu.
