Last weekend I learned the hard way that the netinst CD installs a 386 kernel, so not a 686 kernel, on Intel(r) Pentium(r) IV(pd) > > I am able to test more and help to find out and > > isolate the problem. Nice offer. Realize its more then one problem :-) Start with installing a 686 kernel [1] about > > ip1394:eth1:IEEE-1394 IPv4 over 1394 > > No such device floppy: and > > can't be loaded parport: PnPBIOS we see after the Pentium IV kernel install.

I would try before the reboot to `chroot /target` and `apt-get install kernel-image-686` with the netinst CD. Or netbooting because I have an other computer available as server for netbooting. I'm not sure which CD image supports 686 kernel best.
