I usually use netboot, others use hd-media from USB sticks etc. > Any pre-built image for a quick test? Do I need to generate the image by > myself? There are daily installer images at http://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/armhf/ but these are built from the kernel etc in sid not from svn, i.e. don't yet include the changes to enable uEVM, so until the kernel is next uploaded you would indeed need to build d-i yourself. That's not too hard: Take all the udebs from your kernel build (e.g. from dcmd --udeb linux_..._armhf.changes) and put them in the build/localudebs directory of the debian-installer.git. Then: make -C build build_netboot etc. It doesn't (easily?) cross compile, so you will need an armhf host.
