Not sure what you mean exactly. All these _are_ separate packages.
Some are even subdivided (like partman and the bootloader installers) 
because you don't need all possible bootloaders on all architectures.

Here are some links for you:
http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=netcfg&searchon=names&subword=1&version=unstable&release=all
http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=partman&searchon=names&subword=1&version=unstable&release=all
http://packages.debian.org/unstable/debian-installer/grub-installer
http://packages.debian.org/unstable/debian-installer/hw-detect

The only issue may be that these components (udebs) are designed to 
operate in a certain environment, provided by other debian-installer 
components. So most of the components have dependencies on other (less 
visible) components.

The source for components can of course be found in our SVN repository.

Cheers,
FJP
