Bug#701149: difficult to find a kernel + initrd to boot the installer

[Regid Ichira <regid23@nt1.in>]

  ftp.zcu.cz: /mirrors/linux/debian/dists/wheezy/main/ \
               installer-i386/current/images/netboot/gtk/ \
               debian-installer/i386/

(line broken by me for readability) has, at this time, a linux 
kernel of size 2503264 bytes.  With an initrd.gz of size 28526283
bytes.  That was mirrored there on 12-Feb-2013.  Although the 
kernel from there is the same one as the one that boots into the
installer on my machine, the initrd.gz is not.  Indeed, the pair
from ftp.zcu.cz resulted in a kernel panic when I used it.

  I would expect it would be much easier for me to boot into the 
installer.  Maybe I am doing something wrong.  I am still unsure 
where did I get in kernel + initrd.gz from that does work.  Maybe I
took them from some iso image.

  As far as I can tell so far, there has been a regression in the 
installer ability to run on my machine.  From my point of view, the
current version of the kernel + initrd.gz, those that were made
close to 23-Feb-2013, are worse then those that were made close to 
11-Feb-2013.
