I haven't looked at the installer lately, but it used to use devfs. It seems a bit weird to me they still do... I just checked on #debian-boot and indeed they seem to use the devfs names, although they use udev. I've been told they are moving away from this scheme after the release of etch. I think I'll tag this bug WONTFIX. grts TIm
