The first menu entry in country mirrors selection let you enter a custom
debian mirror, I tried that with my local apt-proxy and worked great, if only
I can found where to patch to let this default to my location in the svn
sources.... will be easy to produce custom pxe netboot install images that I
need so much!

Try that ! In the above cited menu entry enter "APTPROXY:9999" and
then /debian/ (the default) and again enter for the www proxy if u don't use
it. APTPROXY is the hostname if your local dns works or ip of the mirror.
Happy pxeboot debian installing!
