No special Perl modules are used in FAI, so this will not be an
problem when using FAI 3.0 with sarge, but there may be other issues.

You can install FAI 3.0 on a sarge install server without any problems
(I do this too). If you want to create the nfsroot, make sure you have
debootstrap >= 0.3 installed, not version 0.2.45 from sarge. This is
the only package you need for building and etch nfsroot.
Creating a sarge nfsroot with FAI 3.0 might not work. I recommend FAI
2.10.5 if you like to install sarge on your install clients using a
sarge nfsroot.

I hope that now all sarge/etch compability questions are solved.
