Won't work with a Wheezy netinst or full CD. Neither Squeeze nor Sid is
offered as an installation choice. Wheezy is what you have; Wheezy is
what you get.

Tested and didn't work. Please see bug #356105.

The mail at

and its followup are also relevant.

If it was a viable procedure we really should add it to

Doesn't work. Dealt with elsewhere in this thread. load-media is for
loading installer components. A Squeeze image doesn't seem to fit that
category.
