Have you had a similar problem?
I don't think so. The computer on which I most recently installed Debian has an IDE CD/DVD-writer (which I still can't get to write at a decent speed, but that's a different problem) and a SATA HDD. I booted the Debian testing installer CD (this was just over a month ago, before the new stable) and it basically couldn't find the HDD. I don't remember the exact error message now, but I tried 2.6 option, which worked. It didn't lose the CD.
