You don't have to use pen and paper if you use the serial line and minicom. You
can configure PXE to output to the serial line with:
"serial 0 115200 0x303"
as the first line of your configuration file in pxelinux.cfg. The Debian installer
initrd I believe is already configured to use the serial line as well. You may get
more information from the serial line as well.
Well, here is the exact message from the kernel at panic-time - as
mentioned earlier, this is from the current sarge installer-image.
