Oh, i understand, you are trying to boot the d-i kernel, which won't do, since
the initrd has not the modules on it.
What you want is to boot the kernel on the disk's prep partition, not sure how
this is done, but you may try something like :
boot disk (or boot disc)
Alternatively, you can boot into d-i, and then chroot to your system, install
ssh or another network client, and move /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.8-powerpc to your
/tftpboot partition.

Yep.

Ah, forgot -o loop, but this is not needed anymore, as we detected your
problem, you where not using the installed kernel, but the debian-installer
one, and thus altough it is the same kernel, using the wrong initrd.
