In the meanwhile the system is installed and I can confirm that the
bug also happens on the installed system and not only during
installation, so thanks for already having reassigned the bug. :-)

Raising the severity to grave since

a) disabling ACPI permanently on a board with focus on low power
   consumption is not really usable (would be ok during installation
   only, that's why I reported it initially only as severity: important),

and

b) it's a regression since it worked before with 2.6.24.

Here are the usual bug report details from the installed and (with
pci=noacpi) running system:

The mainboard is a VIA EPIA SN18000G,

Bug#504655: debian-installer: Kernel panic when velocity driver started

2008-11-05 Thread Axel Beckert 
Package: debian-installer
Severity: important
Version: 20081105

Tried to install Debian Lenny on a VIA EPIA SN (VIA C7, i386 arch)
board today. This one has a VIA Rhine II (VT6102) and a VIA Velocity
(VT6120/VT6121/VT6122) NIC.

When detecting the network cards, the kernel panics. In the log I saw
that the panic happened while ip was running.

The panic hasn't happened with an old, 2.6.24 based Lenny installer I
tried first (but didn't seem to have LVM support).

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11121 seems to be exactly
the problem I have. Looks like the problem has been introduced with
2.6.26, so it's really a regression.

Tried the Installer from 29. Oct. 2008 (AFAIK RC1) as well as the
daily snapshot from today (5. Nov. 2008).

Workaround is to add pci=noacpi at the boot prompt as reported in
the comments to the above mentioned kernel bug report.

Regards, Axel
