After a short and fairly standard test with netinstall-dual in a virtualbox, trying to install x86_64 I was presented with a "OPERATING SYSTEM MISSING" message. Apparently grub hasn't been installed? I set up /boot (ext2) and / (ext4) as well as swap. I installed base and base-devel and left the rest of the configuration fairly untouched.
I don't have time to investigate further. This was just a heads-up.
-- Sven-Hendrik Thanks for the feedback, though this is virtually useless to me if I don't know whether you performed the grub installation and whether it said something like 'grub installed' or 'grub install failed'. and do you get this error when booting the installed system (without the iso being loaded in the virtual cd drive?)

Well grub said it was installed successfully. I now did it again and selected the first entry which actually worked and the system booted. I also don't think the selection is supposed to look like this: http://i.imgur.com/G8BJ4.png Probably a bug. Or I just can't make sense from that selection.
