You'll probably have to pull in unstable's netcfg packages too. I don't
know if there are other dependencies beyond that. Also, you need a brand
new build system because some modules were missing which caused the
installer not to be able to read from the CD (oops).

FWIW, unstable's installer will work given an updated build system,
which should be in the daily businesscards/netinsts in a day or two.
