I'm confirming the problem (although debian-installer seems to continue anyway).

The only way to fix this is to make sure that debian-installer is built with the -686-pae kernel flavor as well. Which means that 486 and 586 class would not be installable at all...

Custom i486 iso, for which there is no installer.
