the last piece of the puzzle was in one of the provided example files -
namely /srv/fai/config/package_config/DEFAULT.

In this file, all references to the kernel package still follow debian
naming convention (linux-image-486). Changing them to 'linux-image'
finally gets the system running.

Cheers,
