G'day Torsten,
  First of all, I don't have anything to do with the Debian Amiga group, 
so what you are getting are observations from a user, not the "offical party
line".

AFAIK, There currently is no Amiga Debian rescue disk around, but you can
get Debian on your Amiga if you are willing to work on it.

You have to get amiboot and a amiga Linux kernel image.  You will also need
the Debian root.bin file and the base*.bin files.

I cannot really tell you what next to do, as this is where I am up to.  I
have a problem with the root disk image as it says I don't have enough
memory.  so i am going to havr to boot with a non-Debian root disk and then
do some kludging to put Debian on.
