debian-installer already works as I mentioned in my announcement. I
personally installed debian amd64 on my laptop last night and besides a
minor issue with country chooser not working correctly and the kernel
being too old for my laptop (the eMachines M6807 has some major acpi
issues, which are solved in 2.6.7-rc) it worked fine.
