Hello
Have you tried to make a primary parition for debian ?
Also Try to make a 100mb or 2mb parition and set that as boot ?
Once that is done you should be able to tell debian live dvd or your live usb drive once your installing that debian when install to you root and boot will install to whatever parition you laid out for boot
..
Also if you have a external or just a big hdd you can always parition space for a recocery or just call it a backup parition at least something big enough to hold whatever you need try (GPARTED)
http://gparted.sourceforge.net/ .. I hope that helps
