Debian-installer-version:
http://cdimage.debian.org/pub/cdimage-testing/daily/i386/current/ on
9-Oct-04
and the i386 netinst CD image with Debian base on
http://www.nl.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/
uname -a: could not get there!
Date: 9-Oct-04 till now (still trying)
Method: I booted from the CD and didn't need the network in phase 1.
could not get to phase 2

Machine: Toshiba Satellite A70
Processor: Intel Pentium 4 Mobile (with HyperThreading)
Memory: 512
Root Device: hda (hda1: WindowsXP, hda2: debian, hda3: swap)
Root Size/partition table: hda1: ~15GB, hda2: ~24GB, hda3: ~1GB
Output of lspci and lspci -n: no running system

Base System Installation Checklist:
[O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it

Initial boot worked:    [ O]
Configure network HW:   [O ]
Config network:         [ O]
Detect CD:              [ O]
Load installer modules: [O ]
Detect hard drives:     [O ]
Partition hard drives:  [ O]
Create file systems:    [ O]
Mount partitions:       [ O]
Install base system:    [ O]
Install boot loader:    [ O]
Reboot:                 [ E]

Comments/Problems:
Phase 1 goes well. After reboot, boot starts until the point where it says:
hda: IC***** (looks like harddrive model) HARD DISK drive
cannot handle kernel request ...
eip:*** (long list of register values)
Segmentation fault
<6>Journalled *** loaded
pivot_root: No such file or directory
/sbin/init: 426: cannot open dev/console: No such file
kernel panic: Attempted to kill init!

using linux26 hangs the system upon reaching the first dialog in the
installer (the language selection). I had to use vga=771 at booting
from the installer CD or I have no display.
I tried to use the woody netinst CD image and it worked fine (kernel
2.2 though). But once I upgraded the kernel to 2.6.8-686-smp, the
system booted completely and presented a login prompt but was not
responding at all. Now I wasn't sure is it not responding or is the
keyboard not working! Honestly I could not tell as I didn't thing of
any way to tell!!!

(can provide more details if needed)
BTW, I managed to use debian-installer on Toshiba Satellite M30 but
with no other OS (only debian, no WinXP: hda1: debian, hda2: swap).

Great!
I have added a remark about this in the Installation Manual and we will 
keep it in mind for other users.

Thank you for informing us.

Closing this report as the problem is solved.

Cheers,
FJP
