Fixed. Flushed the master-boot record, created a fat partition on the disk. (just to be sure it was emty) Boot from the 100 Mb Debian netinstall cd-rom system, instead of the business-card cd. Removed the fat partition and created some etx3 partitions. Did the base-install from cd-rom this time. System is up and running now. See the "new" installation-report. -- Michel van der Klei
