Hi Eric,

Please try the image at
http://apt.niif.hu/debian-squeeze-di-beta2-amd64-netinst_4.04-pre3.iso
This is a remastered installer built with the debugging version of the
newest upstream Isolinux and a modified config which makes it easy to
skip the graphical menu for getting more progress output.  After the
isolinux banner appears, it should inform you that you can type text and
text-788 at the boot prompt.  You've got 10 seconds to start typing,
please test both options.
