Comments/Problems:

I booted the mac into MacOS, started Penguin-19 with nativehd as the 
ram disk and used kernel parameters: root=/dev/ram ramdisk_size=20000.

I basically did a straight through network-based install. The only
non-default d-i choices I made were manual partitioning and 
distribution unstable.
