But already it wasn't. I continued and when I got to the apt-based installation then I kept receiving the CDROM wasn't detected (sorry, can't remember exact message) And indeed if I tried to manually mount it then it failed. It seemed that 'ide-generic' had not been loaded because it wasn't in /etc/modules. I modprobe'd it and added it and then reran the step and it was fine. Install logs and other status info is available in /var/log/debian-installer/. Okay, but I'm not attaching them - syslog is a bit big :-) I'll keep the files, so if you want them, or more info, then just ask.
