There has been recent progress to make it work with etch, using a simple-cdd-profiles udeb which can more easily integrate into DebianInstaller. It's gotten as far as it asking for profiles, loading preseeding, and queueing packages for installation and running custom profile post-install scripts using DebianInstaller RC1. this also required debian-cd 2.2.25. It required switching to reprepro and wget as the partial mirroring methods, rather than debpartial-mirror(though theoretically supports either method). see the etch bzr branch below for the current code. - 20061201 vagrant

unfortunately, it doesn't appear to work with
debian-cd 3.0.0, patches greatly appreciated. - 20060127 vagrant

Simple-CDD is a wrapper around debian-cd and mirroring tools used to create a customized DebianInstaller CD image. It takes a list of packages to install, and debconf pre-seeding files to pre-configure the installation. It has some support for multiple profiles and custom post-install scripts (for things that can't be handled by debconf preseeding).
