I have been attempting to install debian for a few days now, using the 4.0r3 CD 
described above, and later an older 4.0r1 netinst CD. Both CD's boot 
successfully on other computers. I attempted to boot using auto first, then 
also rescue, expert and install. I attempted boot also by disabling fb, pcmcia 
and usb per install guide all resulting in no change.
I have an older Slackware 9.1 w/ 2.4.31 kernel installed & working and wish to 
re-partition and replace with Debian.

Note that this is not a solution, but a workaround. With these options 
you're basically crippling a lot of the hardware support in the kernel.

Try removing these options one by one and check which ones are absolutely 
needed.

I'd also suggest you try more recent kernels (2.6.24) to see if they have 
better support for the hardware. If not, you should file a bug report 
against the Debian kernel or, what may be more effective, in the BTS for 
the upstream kernel developers [1].

As the installation itself was now apparently successful and the issue is 
not related to the installer itself, I'm closing this installation report.

Cheers,
FJP
