It's a know kernel problem for i386 installations with an amd64 kernel.
Possible solutions:
- install kernel linux-image-2.6.29-1-amd64
- install linux-image-2.6.26-1-amd64 from stable-proposed-updates
Possible workarounds
- install an i386 kernel
- install libc6-i386
Reassigning an merging the bug.
