I believe you are correct; here are some entries from a later successful install; in which I reverted to the original netboot initrd file: Jul 14 05:54:58 main-menu[424]: INFO: Menu item 'choose-mirror' selected Jul 14 05:54:58 anna-install: Queueing udeb apt-mirror-setup for later installation Jul 14 05:55:00 anna[4168]: DEBUG: retrieving disk-detect 1.92 Jul 14 05:55:00 anna[4168]: DEBUG: retrieving ata-modules-3.2.0-4-amd64-di 3.2.65-1 Jul 14 05:55:01 anna[4168]: DEBUG: retrieving sata-modules-3.2.0-4-amd64-di 3.2.65-1 I suspect my initial problem occurred when the mirror entries in the preseed file were faulty. In that case, there would have been no mirror to retrieve from. (The machine is on an internal network.) Sorry for the noise.
