The kernel above has support for the serial console on the RaQ1
whereas the kernel in the archive doesn't. So what you're seeing is
expected. You could take out the hard drive, connect it to another
machine and replace the kernel file on the disk with the one above.
Alternatively, you could do another installation and before the
installer restarts, you could open a shell, chroot into the system and
install openssh-server.
