Hi, Geo,
Sorry to here that you are having so much trouble. I have installed a few HDDs with the following home-brew script with a fresh net install of Debian Squeeze 6.0.6 (using FAI of course) but without DHCP. Perhaps you may want to try? It takes a long time because of the command "/usr/sbin/fai-setup -v". It should provide you with a functional install of FAI. Good luck!
