Is the kernel from debian-testing-m68k-binary-1.iso. And I have not the
net connection.
Even for having this one , I'd should have to enter in chroot on F2,
and install some pkg style initramfs or so, so d-i don't know noting
of this and ask to reinstall the base system. At this point I decide to
reboot -from F2- thoughting that all is ok , but it's not so...

Yes , instalation was made with a singel disk, and for (re)boot, we are
"obligated"
to use a disk with a mac OS - like you know ! - . But I correct this
numbering (sdX) changing by useing a 2.2.25 kernel from a old debian
installation.
