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.
