I am using FAI 2.5.1 with sarge, using a custom 2.4.22 kernel. I've done a number of different configurations (1U servers, desktop machines, IDE/SCSI, PXEboot, bootfloppy, but no CD-boot yet), and all have worked as I'd hoped. I did what you suggested here: simply remove libdetect0 from the list of packages and re-run make-fai-nfsroot.
