This post http://lists.debian.org/debian-arm/2009/07/msg00058.html links to the install instructions at http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/manual/en.armel/ch05s01.html#boot-firmware-ss40 00e.
There seems to be an error in this latter link. The serial line settings are 115200, 8-bit, no parity, flow-control=none. The cntrl-c after 'fis load rammode', 'g', doesn't work on the board I have (an EM-7220 in a Freestor 4020 which is an SS4000-E lookalike). The boot message to break with cntrl-c never comes up so it just runs on without the chance to set the ip etc. It hangs up eventually.

There seem to be numerous versions of initrd.gz and zImage about. Can anyone point at a set they got to work?
