Comments/Problems:
I used the installer image from over a week ago, because d-i.debian.org has
no newer daily images.
Booting with my serial adapter set for 1500000 bps showed nothing but garbage.
Using 115200 bps instead showed several bootloader messages clearly, and then
nothing but garbage. Editing extlinux.conf to append console=ttyS2,115200n8
to the kernel command line and then setting my serial port to that speed made
kernel boot messages visible and allowed me operate the debian installer.
The installer stopped at the "Download installer components" step,
displaying this message:
"""
No kernel modules were found. This probably is due to a mismatch
between the kernel used by this version of the installer and the
kernel version available in the archive.
You should make sure that your installation image is up-to-date, or -
if that's the case - try a different mirror, preferably
deb.debian.org.
