I believe this is RC severity.

I have sucessfully reproduced this on both a ibook and on my pegasos, so
i would run out hardware issues. Also, i seriously doubt d-i is
straining a 1Ghz G4 or a 800MHz G3 very much at this point. No other
powerpc user have tried it with swap enabled yet, as we all usually
install in the previous swap partition for testing. I wonder if this is
bigendian or ppc specific though, could you test this function on a
bigger swap partition on your box (or have someone else test it on x86
also). It always is at around the same % of completeness too, so i
highly suspect some strange stuff going on.

I will try calling this function by hand, and see what happens,
hopefully isolating a small test case or something, but again, having
the data on non ppc available would be good, can you provide this to me ?
