Indeed, it was addressed at Colin, not you.

Can you please try :

  http://people.debian.org/~luther/debian-installer-64bit

or 

  http://people.debian.org/~luther/debian-installer-64bit-2

or the vmlinuz-chrp.initrd if this one is built by the daily build stuff.

The -2 stuff is if you use hvc0 as serial console, and cannot provide the
console=hvc0 argument on the command line, like seemed to be the case on the
js21 blades.
