It worked that way for me. It booted the installed OS and not the installer.

Another way could be that you choose "back" when the installation
tells you it is going to reboot. That gives you a menu. In the menu
you should choose "terminal console" or something like it. There you
should:

chroot chroot /target
mount none /proc -t proc
aptitude update
aptitude install linux-image-2.6.32.5-libre-lemote
exit
exit
