Is this normal Alpha architecture? IMO it should be possible. You only
have to write a hook for the partitioning, but that's easy. FAI is
very generic except for the boot loader and partitioning part.

Also have a look at this bug: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=330915
IMO This bug is wrong. It's not completly broken, you just have to
write the hooks and compile an install kernel.
