You can do this from the extra functions menu.

Comments/Problems:

The debian-installer method is a much better than the modified FreeBSD
sysinstall[1]. Its great to be using the debian-installer for kFreeBSD.

The initial boot menu says "Install Debian GNU/kFreeBSD 32 bits" but the
normal term is "32 bit".

In the install menus the first character isn't highlighted when the item
is selected.

In the task select I selected the "Graphical desktop environment" but
this didn't result in a graphical desktop environment after install.
xorg was installed but only a few bits of GNOME were. I suspect this is
because currently 'apt-get install gnome' gives "Package gnome is not
available, but is referred to by another package.". Running startx gave
a black screen.  Installed XFCE4 which runs fine. xorg runs correctly
without the need for an xorg.conf file.

Despite choosing UK keyboard on install still had to do
'dpkg-reconfigure kbdcontrol' and choose 'uk.iso.kbd' to get correct
keymap on console and X.

In a ttyv, the menus for 'dpkg-reconfigure kbdcontrol' and 'tasksel'
have ugly window decoration as if the wrong characters have been chosen
and the menu items shift left on first selection.

The '-k' of 'lspci -knn' doesn't work. I guess this is a Linux only
option.
