Yes, it works perfectly well for Debian Jessie.
Ok, thanks for confirming.
mips folks - any clues please? AFAICS we've had ~zero input about mips
in d-i and image work, and no visible testing. Some help would be appreciated...

Hi Bruno,
Did the same setup work with jessie images? I've got ~no background
with mips stuff here...
I think I know which error you mean (and I confess I have seen it
before). The issue is that QEMU loads the initrd into the memory
immediately after the kernel, but that bit of memory might get
overwritten by KASLR when the kernel starts and relocates itself.
You can workaround it by passing "-append nokaslr" to QEMU, but I guess
that QEMU should be fixed to place the initrd in a higher bit of memory.
James
