Comments/Problems:
I have been using Lenny for 2 years now and decided it's time to
switch to Squeeze by doing a fresh install. Here's the problem:
The installation hangs at the boot loader install stage. GRUB simply
give a fatal error (after selecting that the loader should be
installed
on the MBR - the yes or no question) message and the only way I can
proceed further is by selecting the "Continue without boot loader
option".
Upon restart I am booted in a GRUB prompt (GRUB >). I have tried to
install Lenny with the corresponding Lenny images and the installation
went perfectly. So I guess this is a GRUB or D-I problem in Squeeze.
<Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments
and ideas you had during the initial install.>

Hi,
Thanks for your report.
Closing as it's an installation report from a debian installer version
which isn't supported anymore.
Feel free to test and report any issues against the current debian
installer release (Squeeze RC1) which supports more hardware and also
it's improved.
Thanks!
