Hi.

Using deb packages and a APT repository, I've been able to set up both a
Debian Wheezy amd64 laptop and a Raspberry Pi using Raspbian as a
Freedombox.

Debian Wheezy amd64
-------------------

 (1) Fetch Normal Debian installation ISO.
 (2) Boot from it, either as CD or USB stick.
 (3) Press [tab] on the boot prompt, add
       url=http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox/preseed-wheezy.dat
     as a boot argument.
 (4) Answer the few language/region questions and pick disk to install
     on.
 (5) Boot into your freshly created Freedombox.

Raspberry Pi Raspbian
---------------------

 (1) Fetch a Raspbian SD card image, create SD card.
 (2) Boot from SD card, extend file system to fill the card completely.
 (3) Log in and add this to /etc/sources.list:
       deb http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox wheey main
 (4) Run this as root:
       apt-get update
       apt-get install freedombox-setup freedombox-privoxy
       /usr/lib/freedombox/setup
 (5) Reboot into your freshly created Freedombox

Please let me know if this work for you, or if you have any problems.  I
am pere on #freedombox (irc.debian.org).

Happy hacking
