Comments/Problems:
1) the cd from whom aboot booted the debian system was not recognised:
cat /proc/scsi/scsi
Attached devices:
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 05 Lun: 00
Vendor: DEC Model: RRD47 (C) DEC Rev: 1206
Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02
mount /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target5/lun0/cd /cdrom
2) base system install aborted with following message on console 3:
trying to overwrite /etc/default/devpts which is also in packages
initscripts .. errors where encountered while processing .*libc6
also tried beta3, but this aborted even earlier in base-install
with no error message while trying to install libgcrypt
did a reinstall on clean partition and aboves error appeared again.
manually installed all packages witch dpkg inside a chroot
3) at this stage i strongly missed a menu-entry for aboot at d-i!!
from within the chroot one can't do much
so i tried a recommendation from an srm howto
(-> http://www.sgmltools.org/HOWTO/SRM-HOWTO/t182.html)
did an # swriteboot /dev/sda bootlx vmlinux.gz
(well different pathes .. but you got it)
it asked for an -fi in order to overwrite the first empty
partition, which was given.
I eventually forgot to setup an /etc/aboot.conf
the installation ended somehow miserably with a working
debian install (had already an sshd inside) but without
the possibility too boot inside this root partition :(
i tried many possible root flags from within srm,
but the kernel always failed to find the root partition
(also tried boot root partition from cd).
