Debian testing/unstable on RiscPC ?

[Peter Teichmann <peter@peter-teichmann.de>]

Hi,

I have an Acorn RiscPC running Debian 3.0, and I would like to upgrade it to 
at least testing. I tried it with a method I found to work on x86 and mips:

* install a minimum Debian 3.0 on another partition
* change /etc/apt/sources.list to unstable
* start dselect, choose update, select and then install

When I have done all these steps and finally start the installation of 
unstable, I only get to the point when it updates debconf. There, the 
debconf.postinst script causes a segmentation fault.

I tried it with bot a 2.4.19-rmk7 and a 2.6.0-rmk2 kernel, and the result was 
the same. I am wondering if I am doing something wrong, or if this is 
really a bug. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
