This seems to be related or maybe it is even the same as 489287 I have used the current daily debian-testing-amd64-businesscard.iso from 29-Aug-2008 00:04 and installed `testing' with a seperate /boot partition at the end of the disk. A `msdos' partition table is no problem at all with a seperate /boot.
