Ah, the same problem as on Amigas with 2.6? At least Frans' tip of using "keep kernel keymap" worked on my A3000 running 2.6.14-m68k-amiga (from Kars with his 53c000 SCSI patch). > All the other m68k subarchs supposedly work with 2.4.27.

When "keep kernel keymap" really works on m68k, I can report no issues (or no known issues) for Amiga subarchs (A3000 WarpEngine 040/40, A3000 CyberStorm MkII, A4000T Cyberstorm MkII tested), but I recommend that d-i or console-data (debconf questions) should point to that problem and recommend using kernel keymap on m68k. > > I'm hoping that the Quadra 840 AV and Quadra 660 AV would be future > > candidates for a qualifying a 2.6 kernel that could be considered stable. > > This is because 840 AV was the fastest production model, Christian has > > one, and the problems on those machines appear to be relatively tractable. > > But I'm afraid I can't hazard a guess as to a timeframe on this. > I'm the primary d-i developer and I have a quadra 650 and two 950s. > Until one of those runs 2.6 (d-i requires a working keyboard to really > be useful) or atari (aranym) gets fixed, I can't really do much. > If someone wants to step up, I'd be happy to help out with builds and > such. I can only offer to test d-i builds on Spice... -- Ciao... // Fon: 0381-2744150 Ingo \X/ SIP: 2744150@sipgate.de gpg pubkey: http://www.juergensmann.de/ij/public_key.asc
