Installing debian on new hardware.



Hello list, i was just wondering,

I have a new machine PIV 2.8ghz with hyperthreading, and a serial ata disk. 
What is the best way to launch a debian install on it ? Currently there's a 
gentoo with a custom kernel on it which i had to install from a custom chroot 
(since there were problems booting and detecting the disks). But gentoo 
doesn't 'feel' right and i want to turn the machine in a debian. Are there 
any recents boot disks,iso, ... available that are able to boot this machine, 
or how can i create my custom boot disks starting from the current kernel, or 
is it possible to launch the debian install from a chrooted environment ? 

greetings
