Through a serial console?
The Debian Installer (in text mode) should run just fine there.
I'm not really sure if the Debian Installer supports that platform
already. If not, you'll probably need a different method of
bootstrapping. E.g. throough debootstrap from the existing system
installed there.
http://www.cyrius.com/debian/kirkwood/sheevaplug/ may also apply.
