That depends on your definition of easy. It looks like someone already made
custom floppies: http://silicon-verl.de/home/flo/software/debianbf/ .

When I installed my system (Adapted IDE i2o RAID, not that that makes much
difference), I did a minimal install on separate disk (attached to the
regular IDE controller), installed what I needed to build a kernel that did
support the card, booted with that kernel and then cloned the install from
the separate disk onto RAID.
