It sounds like you're doing everything right, but it's still not working!  I 
wonder what would have happened if you had booted from the CD in order to 
install rather than using sysinstall from a running system.  As I said before,
I've run STABLE and CURRENT on the same box, so I know this works.  I'm sorry
I can't offer any more help than the measly suggestion above!

Best Regards,
