Luckily - with the -PDC-images and ttyB0 everything worked out
perfectly, the kernel found all my disks, my network card,
it is now "Installing base packages..." - so I go home to eat dinner
and connect with ssh to the serial terminal server to watch for further
progress :=3D)

Well.. I delayed the dinner, and now the box is perfect :)
Brilliant work, everyone! I really had no idea it would
work that smooth.
