Could you please file an installation report about that?

lspci is not a part of installer.
In /proc/pci I didn`t find anyting like "010".

The lspci -n output would be really handy, especially for the drive
controllers.

lspci -n |grep 010

I tried the testing image.
The only noticible difference is klogd not running or misconfigured.

Could you please try the beta2 image?  It's available at:
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/amd64/iso-cd/

It should have a more recent kernel (2.6.15).

Unfortunately I am not able to copy-paste the log.
However, here is what I succeeded to write down (from kmsg):

amd74xx
   print versioning info, no error
ide-generic
  "klogd[243]: segfault [some addresses] error 6"
  then goes successfull description of IDE controlled devices
ide-disk
 some info, then
 "hda: dma_timer_expiry: dma status == 0xff"

Hmm.  Pretty sure I have seen people report that A8N* boards worked
fine, so I would have thought the K8N* boards should work the same.

does dmesg show anything detected when amd74xx is loaded?  make sure to
load that before ide-generic or ide-generic will take over (and it
doesn't do dma and would be very very slow).

Thanks for your fast answer.

The board is ASUS K8N4-E.

Without ide-generic the installer is not able to use CD`s it was booted 
from.
If I don`t load ide-disk, the continuation menu of installer appears, but 
disks can`t be accessed.


There is amd74xx module and it is loaded.

Hmm.  I would have expected an nforce4 board to work rather easily.
Which board is it?  You also probably shouldn't need ide-generic at all,
but rather amd74xx (at least my nforce2 uses that ide driver).
