Comment(by jdreed):
Apparently, the problem here is twofold. Having gotten video working, I
now see that the failure is during the hardware detection step. Something
the installer does is resetting the network device and we lose
connectivity and anna freaks out. Can we preseed anything to prevent this
from happening? We need hardware-detection for, say, disks.
/mit/jdreed/Public/syslog.vostro, if you care. The point at which
/dev/sdb shows up is when I plugged in a USB stick to get the syslog. You
can clearly see that anna retrieved everything fine and then barfed during
hardware detection. This is a Realtek-based chipset if that's relevant.
