Package: boot-floppies Version: 2.2.4 At several points in the install I got an error about libncurses being unavailable. I don't know if this prevented anything important from running--it did not make any important difference that I could tell. Sample error: error in loading shared libraries: libncurses.so.5 Cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory This error came up while probing serial ports, and again a few steps later.
