Testing, not Unstable (or Experimental), about 3 weeks from the freeze
preparatory for becoming Stable (usually means approx. 4+ years of testing)
[no comment on the attempt to get a GR which will delay current work]

If you are having problems *please* file a bug report so the problem can
be quickly fixed.
Ideally you'd read the release notes before installing:-
https://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/News/2014/20141005
*And* the errata:-
https://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/errata
The *first* place to check for support is debian.org

It sounds like you are using the 32-bit (multi-arch) installer instead
of the AMD64 installer. See the link further up this post.
