Thanks very much for the info. Unfortunately we cannot find where exactly the installation goes wrong and need more info. Could you try the following. Before base-installation starts (for example when the partitioning dialog is shown), switch to VT2 (using Ctrl-Alt-F2) and add a line "set -x" in /usr/sbin/debootstrap (after the first line). This should give a lot more output, probably in /var/log/messages; please send that to this bug report. Cheers, FJP
