In brief this is what I did.

Get the installer available from (there are two images
sarge-i386-businesscard.iso and sarge-i386-netinst.iso
I used the second one from
http://cdimage.debian.org/pub/cdimage-testing/daily/i386/current/

burn and boot from the and start installation. 
In my installations iitm.ac.in is recommended by the installer scripts itself
- for I selected India as the country/region.

For configureing X I use xf86cfg.
It will create the file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XF86Config - Please confirm
the path before saving it. Copy this file to /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
The only thing to be changed is the screen resolution.
