Were you able to install the base system without networking, i.e. did the
installer pull additional installer components from cdrom instead over
the network? If yes, my original suspicion that debian-installer on hppa
is running in netboot mode would not be confirmed.

And I would need an exact replay of the individual steps. We often have
people that use the debian-installer in unusual ways like with a custom
kernel and initrd and then complain it doesn't work. debian-installer
must be booted from the CD image using both the kernel and initrd provided
on the CD otherwise it cannot be guaranteed the whole setup works correctly.
