If you have access to RedBoot (telnet or serial console), you can use
HTTP or TFTP to start the d-i netboot kernel and initrd.
something like:
ip_address -l 192.168.0.42 -h 192.168.0.12
load -r -v -b 0x00800000 -m http /debian/initrd
load -r -v -b 0x00200000 -m http /debian/kernel
exec -c "console=ttyS0,115200 root=/dev/ram0 initrd=0xa0800000,42M
mem=1...@0xa0000000"
(I like this method because it avoids writing anything to flash until
you confirm the installer is working.)
