I tried to use testing d-i again, and it went better. First I set up a
DHCP server and TFTP server on my laptop and disconnected the modem that
also has built-in DHCP server from the network. With this configuration
QNAP obtained an IP address, downloaded d-i image, rebooted into d-i,
obtained the IP address again, and did nothing for several minutes, till
I rebooted it. After reboot - the same problem, I can ping QNAP, but it
does not start the ssh server.

So I stopped the laptop's DHCP server and connected my modem to network.
After I rebooted QNAP ssh worked fine, and it took around a minute to
boot. Can it be that D-I requires full network configuration, with
gateway, DNS, and so on via DHCP? That the only difference I can think
about.

After I connected to QNAP via ssh and downloaded installer components, I
was presented with a list of languages to choose from. The list was
quite small (screenshot: http://people.debian.org/~eugen/di-languages.png ).
For example, Ukrainian was not in the list. There were no non-latin languages
in the list. Some languages using Latin scripts were missing too. Why?

I tested the installer only till I was able to mount the hard drive and
reflash the kernel from the working system. There were no other
problems.
