Hmm, it was updated, and thanks for that. But the d-i kernel in Wheezy
wasn't updated accordingly: it is still based on 7.5, so right now
installing on such a device is only possible using the 7.4 installer. 

However, during such an installation, the most recent kernel from
security.debian.org will be installed and thus the system will boot. So
it's not all bad, yet still the common netboot scenarios which just have
the most recent installer available will break. :)

I couldn't find any plans to update the installer with the most recent
Wheezy kernel, but I take it they exist?

Best regards,
Flo
