There's a bug in the kernel driver here, that we've picked up in
testing of these exact images. See https://bugs.debian.org/1029116 and
https://bugs.debian.org/1031286 if you're interested in the details.

We're planning on doing another debian-installer release in the next
few days which will include this fix. Or if you try one of the current
daily/weekly images it will most likely work too...

< sladen> I actually stayed in a hotel and arrived to find a post-it
          note stuck to the mini-bar saying "Paul: This fridge and
          fittings are the correct way around and do not need altering"
