FYI, I've also tried the mini.iso and ubuntu-9.10-netbook-
remix-i386.iso, and using the boot.img.gz from hd-media/ instead of
manually copied files, all with the same results (failed to find main
/debian-installer/).

I did not try the usb-creator based method described in
http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick since that
seems to require already having a Ubuntu 9.10 system available, which I
didn't. If that one works, could you add some manual instructions (or a
self-contained package?) usable for other Linux systems without needing
to apt-get software?

I've now done a network install instead using
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/karmic/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/boot.img.gz,
which worked fine with a wired Ethernet connection. (I assume it's
normal that it's unable to use the wireless network for installing.)
