Package: base-installer
Severity: important


sid/sarge d-i is fully broken on powerpc currently, as it seems to hang
without a reason at 69% while configuring base-config. The debootstrap log
shows it finished configuring base-config 2.71 (from memory), and nothing
happens anymore afterward.

I am trully baffled by this.

I have had a user report about a similar issue (user installed sarge and then
upgraded, but i don't remember who it was), and this is on a powerbook.

Friendly,

Sven Luther
