Installer does not like 700/96

[Rob Wultsch <wultsch@gmail.com>]

I have inherited a D-class (dual 166 Mhz with 1.7 GB ram) and am
trying to installer debian via the sarge installer  (rc 2). When the
ncurses menu pops up the 700/96 (monitor and kb that act as a serial
terminal) does not do anything useable with the text. I can see what
is going on to some degree but I can not react well to it.

Any quick fixes?
