The only problem I encountered was that it could not find the correct kernel to install therefore a kernel had to be manually installed after the installation completed. The message was something to the effect of no installable kernels were found in the defined sources. If there are enough interested people who use Debian on the ps3, then maybe we can have this fixed.
