The debian-installer manual for sarge includes a nice table
(http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/manual/en.alpha/ch02s01.html) that lists the
various alpha subarchitecture codenames, along with the specific machines
that fall into the category and their corresponding MILO image names where
applicable (which for sarge will be "nowhere", but that's another story).

In particular, the table includes these categorizations:

TITAN   AlphaServer ES45                Privateer               N/A
        UNKNOWN                         Yukon                   N/A

TSUNAMI AlphaServer DS10                Webbrick                N/A
        AlphaServer DS20                Catamaran/Goldrush      N/A
        AlphaServer DS20E               Goldrack                N/A
        AlphaServer ES40                Clipper                 N/A
        DP264                           DP264                   N/A
        SMARTengine 21264 PCI/ISA SBC   Eiger                   N/A
        UNKNOWN                         Warhol                  N/A
        UNKNOWN                         Windjammer              N/A
        UP2000                          Swordfish               N/A
        XP1000                          Monet/Brisbane          N/A
        XP900                           Webbrick                N/A

In past discussions on the list, the DS15/DS25/ES45 series of machines have
been referred to as "TITAN-based", but the manual only lists the ES45, along
with the similar (but not identical) AlphaServers DS10 and DS20, classified
as TSUNAMI.  Does anyone know if this is accurate?  This is relevant for
sarge because the TITAN class of systems is not supported by the prepackaged
Debian kernels owing to specific kernel load address requirements.
