[TriLUG] Debian netinstall somehow broken...

[Tanner Lovelace]

Sounds like you went with the installer images for Debian Stable.  
Try the (official) installer images for Debian testing at
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/
They've really improved the installer over the one in Woody (stable).

Good luck,
Tanner
