this is very likely caused by the fact that debian-installer does not build an initramfs but an initrd for dove (unlike the other armel architectures)

ogra@osiris:~/Devel/branches/debian-installer/ubuntu$ grep INITRD_FS ./build/config/armel/imx51/netboot.cfg
INITRD_FS = initramfs
ogra@osiris:~/Devel/branches/debian-installer/ubuntu$ grep INITRD_FS ./build/config/armel/omap/netboot.cfg
INITRD_FS = initramfs
ogra@osiris:~/Devel/branches/debian-installer/ubuntu$ grep INITRD_FS ./build/config/armel/dove/netboot.cfg
ogra@osiris:~/Devel/branches/debian-installer/ubuntu$

we will likely need to set the INITRD_FS variable here as well, else it will default to build an initrd which i'm not sure the dove kernel even supports.
