Bug Description
I did a text install of Dapper RC from the Alternative Install CD. I have a Dell Inspiron 510m with an Intel i855 Graphics card.
When the installer is installing all of the packages, it gets to about 60% and then starts doing things with the Xorg packages. On Dapper Beta it flashed to a black screen with two white rectangles and then went back to the installer where you could watch the status bar etc.
This time it got to that point and never returned to the installer from the black screen with two white rectangles. The installation continued in the background and, because I knew the questions following that step weren't too important, I could just press enter - enter when the CDRom and HD stopped doing things and complete the install.

Here is a photo of the screen as it is for the last half of the install.
The package on which it hangs is the configuration of "xserver-install".
Sadly, I repeated the install and the problem occurs each time.
