Comments/Problems:

        The EFI filesystem wasn't recognised by the firmware bootloader, so I had to boot from the EFI shell.

Do you need help?X

The first few steps worked, until it came time to configure the network. It appears there are no network driver modules on the CD. This machine has an E100 Pro, and a DP83820. Neither driver was present, so I could not complete the installation. The disk version is: Debian GNU/Linux testing "Lenny" - Official Snapshot ia64 NETINST Binary-1 20070510-09:08

I also tried the `business card' image with the same result.
