Bug Description
On a Calxeda ECX-2000 (aka Midway) system the device tree model name is different than that on Highbank, so the installer reports "unknown" instead of the expected "generic".
Easy fix is to add a matching line for Midway. The name comes from the kernel device tree: arch/arm/

fwiw, I *think* the plan is to make libdebian-installer return to exposing the real subarch (highbank, vs. generic), and add the logic to base-installer to know that -generic is the right flavor for a given subarch.
