s/Lenny/Squeeze/ rather.
Basically: you very simply cannot use images built for Lenny to install
Squeeze.
At least not netboot images. I guess that if you took a Lenny businesscard
CD and selected expert mode, it would happily install Squeeze if you
asked it to. Reason: it will take the libc6 udeb from the CD images and
that will of course match the version of libnss-files-udeb included in
the initrd.
