cpuinfo was from RHEL 5.4 environment. IIRC it had 2.6.18 kernel, that's
why such a tight model name. I'll give more details on my next boot with a
fresh snapshot...

None of the kernels from 5.x tree worked for me. Everytime I hit that
memcpy BUG. I've booted off from
https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/ports/snapshots/2019-07-16/ - it was
perfect in terms of initial boot and launching the install shell. But then
it stuck at "detect and mount CD" (step 3 of launcher).
