Hi!

I made a GNU/kFreeBSD-based LiveCD. Check it out:

  http://people.debian.org/~rmh/livecd/

It can be used to install Debian GNU/kFreeBSD, provided that the target
disk is already partitioned.

You just boot into it, and it dumps a bash shell which you can use to
create the filesystem with mkfs.ufs [1], mount it and untar the base system
(located in /root) into it.

[1] Well, mkfs.ufs is currently broken, so you have to create the filesystem
from an installed OS yet.
