Thanks for your post ColonelMustard
I followed your steps, with Django1.0.
Encountered some problems when running 'python manage.py syncdb'
You probably already got it working, anyways, here goes;

After creating a project with an app in it, I got python errors regarding no module xml.sax.saxutils.
I solved it with adding repository "Testing Meamo Etxras", and installing package "python2.5-xml" (apt-get install python2.5-xml). Now it works fine. All commands works etc etc.
