Re: Installer segfaults.
You don't have to use pen and paper if you use the serial line and minicom. You
can configure PXE to output to the serial line with:
"serial 0 115200 0x303"
as the first line of your configuration file in pxelinux.cfg. The Debian installer
initrd I believe is already configured to use the serial line as well. You may get
more information from the serial line as well.
