Hi Clive,
ok, so here's how it goes:
use the BootX with the kernel from the installed system, supply the
initrd of the booted system and put a root=... as commandline arg.

Hi again,
ok, here's the next problem. Now i have managed to get past BootX, even
past d-i, except that it failed at quix installation. So i thought, who
cares, i'll go for BootX with my kernel and a proper root= setting.. Yet
when i launch BootX with root=/dev/hda8 or
root=/dev/ide/host0/bus0/tar
Hi Brad,
thanks for the insight. In that case, why isn't that list shipped with
the d-i docs? Or is it and i was just too blind to see it?

Thanks! that did the trick. Maybe it should be added to the d-i manual
how to tell what's "OldWorld" and what's "NewWorld" mac. I thought i had
a NewWorld one for some reason (well, just wildly guessing actually).
