The correct (I think, at least IMHO), way is that suggested by the
installation manual.
1. Attempt an installation using a daily build (you did this).
2. Whether or not successful, submit an installation report. Its
a special-format bug report. The format is at the end of the
installation manual.
3. Personally, I'd subscribe to debian-boot (the 'maintainers' of
the installation system and the recipients of the bug report).
I'm sure that with RC2 just released, they would be very
interested in your problems.
Good luck.
Doug.
