Prividing dummy packages for the two packages created an iso, which boots, and recognizes both the networking card (after adding the firmware from an usbstick to /lib/firmware), and the hard drive. :-) Now the only problem left to solve is to get a kernel form lenny_backports installed, so that the installed system will actually find it's root file system. Anyway, the problem of creating an iso is solved, sorry about the noise.
