The latest netboot test I did showed no problems. I was pointing at testing, so this problem is fixed (as expected) for affected 64-bit systems in base-installer 0.084 at least. The aboot-installer package does not suffer from this bug (at least not at RC severity) because it uses the base system df, not the busybox df. Once aboot-installer 0.0.11 makes it into testing, and any other out-of-date udebs are synced up, I believe alpha will be ready for TC2. I also want to get d-i using 2.4.26 instead of 2.4.25 on alpha, now that both are in testing; I'll make the switch tomorrow, and once aboot-installer is in, start pounding on sarge_d-i. > Discussion about new languagechooser.
