[Bug 1293832] Re: Calxeda ECX-2000 support broken

[dann frazier]

I see two ways of fixing this. One is to tell libdebian-installer to
recognize it as a "armhf/generic". This will let the existing base-
installer match it, and fall through to the code that recognizes lpae.

Another option is to teach base-installer about generic-lpae, and
fallthrough to the same code.

** Patch added: "Option #1: make archdetect report ECX-2000 as "armhf/generic""
