I have tried the daily build http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/i386/iso-cd/debian-testing-i386-netinst.iso of today (14. April 2008, 15.00 h GMT+1) build on 12-Apr-2008 23:52 but that does not work either.
After the progress bar of network detection is complete I get a blue screen (not a bluescreen!!!) and the caps-lock LED is blinking (it was blinking with the other installer, too). Any ideas?
