ACK. For now I've added the same code to boot-mips as we have for
boot-arm: copy the d-i kernel and initramfs images onto the CD, even
if they're not bootable. That way people grabbing a DVD or whatever
will have whatever we can provide to boot an installer.

Based on that, I'm ready to go with another attempt to build alpha 3
now.
