Well, I did try that (because all else before that had failed) and I got: 

Congratulations, You have successfully installed Debian!

and after the message about how to revisit the setup process (by running
/usr/sbin/base-config) I got another kernel panic: 

Loading /etc/console/boottime.kmap.gz

kernel access of bad area pc c00dca04 lr c00de9f8 address 70 tsk hwclock/230
task = c65dc000[230] 'hwclock'
mm-> pgd c6e2c000 last syscall: 6

GPR08:  0000000B   00000000   C0180000  C67EC08C   2422

and then it rebooted before I could write down the rest of it. 

So I guess you were right about it leading to strange behaviour of the
system :-)

But it appears to be the furthest I have got so far :-) 

Kind Regards,
