[sheepishly] The problem, in both cases, was that I hadn't copied the '.disk' dotfile directory from the install media ISO filesystem(s) in each case. That caused this check to fail: https://sources.debian.org/src/cdrom-detect/1.102/debian/cdrom-detect.postinst/#L24 After including the '.disk' directory (which I guess may appear as a hidden directory on some operating systems?) to the FAT32 install media, d-i is able to proceed beyond media-checks and hardware detection during installation. With that testing confirmed, I've regained confidence in the fix (although would still appreciate independent verification).
