Comments/Problems:
The initial boot (to finish the installation) fails with a kernel panic.
I think it's megaraid driver module which isn't loaded correctly.
Here is the output of the kernel shortened to the relevant part:
....
SCSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00
megaraid: v1.18k (Release Date: Thu Aug 28 10:05:11 EDT 2003)
megaraid: no BIOS enabled.
/lib/modules/2.4.27-1-386/kernel/drivers/scsi/megaraid.o: init_module:
No such device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters,
including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.SCSI subsystem driver Revision:
1.00
You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg
/lib/modules/2.4.27-1-386/kernel/drivers/scsi/megaraid.o: insmod
megaraid failed
Journalled Block Device driver loaded
pivot_root: No sKernel panic: Attempted to kill init!
uch file or directory
I already reported this together with another bug (#276379) which was
fixed by Joshua Kwan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. He also wrote this:

It also happens with a Dell PowerEdge 2850 which has the same
controller.

Hi,
Yesterday, I successfully installed a PowerEdge 1850 server with
megaraid2 (the same type of machine I described in #299055) with Debian
Installer RC 3.
This was to be expected as I couldn't reproduce the initrd problems I
had in #299055 when I tried to debug it (something like 10 days ago).
Reporters of bugs #278887, #282109, #282793, #284230, and #287019:
please try with a newer initrd-tools or debian-installer or report any
remaining problems I might have overseen!
Regards,
