I ran across this problem a while ago. What is happening is you have the degenerate boot-floppies inittab. If you're comfortable enough with Debian that you can "hand install" from this point, there's an /etc/inittab.real that you just put in place of /etc/inittab and get tty1 back. I think that it's been fixed in newer boot-floppies (at least I've never seen it again). >repeated 10 times, then > >INIT: ld "1" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes > >And after a while it does it again and again. > >I went through the installation again.
