Load installer modules: [E] The unavailable modules, and the devices that need them are: e1000 (Intel Corporation 82547EI Gigabit Ethernet Controller) The unavailable modules, and the devices that need them are: ide-scsi (Linux IDE-SCSI emulation layer) -> The missing Ethernet module can be severe for continuing the installation over the net. Partition hard drives: [E] On exisiting ext2/ext3 partion, the following unrecoverable, repeating error message occured: This ext2/ext3 filesystem has a rather strange layout! Parted can't resize this (yet) -> Thus, I decided to let the debian-installer format the root partition with ext3 again, which did not produce an error anymore. -> I've decided to install the kernel-image-2.6.3-1-386 Reboot: [E] After kernel decompressing, the PnPBIOS section and the following messages, a kernel panic occured: general protection fault: 0000[#1] CPU: 0 EIP: 0098:[<00001013>] Not tainted EFLAGS: 00010097 EIP is at 0x1013 (now come a lot of stack outputs) Code: Bad EIP value <0>kernel panic: Attempted to kill init! I hope this helps!
