It seem to hang when processing /dev/sdb if I understand correctly.
/dev/sdb is actually a small USB disk that is integrated into the same
USB stick as the 2GB /dev/sdc USB disk. When I insert this USB stick
into a regular Lenny machine I get this:

So /dev/sdb is just an another innocent small 5MB usb storage disk. It's
strange that partman can be getting trouble with this.
How can I get more debug informations from partman to go deeper into the
analysis ?
Note: I first tried a AMD64 install that have the same exact problem
before giving this report from a i386 install. The machine is only 2
days old and run without problem Windows 7 and Meego 1.1, so no hardware
failure is expected.
