Thanks, I'll report how it goes.

In the meantime, I have tried an FTP install with the last benh installer. I
get a graphical installer, but the colors are wrong. They don't change when
I switch to a text console and back either. It looks like it uses a wrong
color palette (does it use 8 bit color?).

Besides, in the instructions you posted to the list, you forgot to mention
that we should run make_mdkinst_stage2 after copying the modules file into
mdkinst/lib (at least that was what fixed the "can't load modules" error for
me).

Otherwise, everything seemed to work well up to the hard disk partitioning,
where I stopped because I didn't want to copy all the packages over to the
machine I used as FTP server.
