Hi all, seems like I've got it working now. I decided to completely reinstall Debian, and this time I used the boot option debconf-priority=low
so that DPKG would ask me about pretty much all steps of the installation. When I got to the boot loader, I decided to install Lilo instead of GRUB. Well, this failed for whatever weird reason - and since I was too frustrated to just abort the installation, I then chose the GRUB installation once again. This again worked successfully, and I was then able to reboot... And well, looks like it's working now! Debian booted successfully, but when I examined the /boot directory, I saw that I now had files for both GRUB and Lilo. Well, I decided to risk breaking things and ran aptitude purge lilo which completed successfully. After that, I rebooted once again and it actually is still working. So, I've got no idea at all what exactly happened here - but it turned out to work in the end and appears to be stable so I'll stick with that. I will also get a Net6501 tomorrow for other purposes, and hope the process of setting up Debian on that will be more painless and smooth. Thanks for all the help!
