I've got a 710 up & running with the 0.93 iso without major problems.
The 710 doesn't have a CDROM, so I booted the included lifimage via
rbootd from a PC running Debian Potato (rbootd is included as package).
The only minor problem was NFS-mounting the installation CD. The Debian
installer tries a V3 mount without running a portmapper, thus hanging
for lockd/statd until timeout, which is really long. So I did the mount
by hand using the "nolock" option and told the installer to use an
already mounted partition.
You have to upgrade the kernel after installation to get a usable (dumb)
framebuffer if you want to give XFree a try. There is no HIL mouse
support in the CVS kernel yet.
