I kicked them out because they are hopelessly out of date. I begged many
times for help on debian-68k, but none of our users seems to be interested
in up-to-date documentation. Maybe we should drop m68k support completely?

I keep potato quickinstall docs at:

http://people.debian.org/~cts/debian-m68k/potato/
http://people.debian.org/~cts/debian-m68k/potato/debian-amiga.txt
http://people.debian.org/~cts/debian-m68k/potato/debian-atari.txt
http://people.debian.org/~cts/debian-m68k/potato/debian-mac.txt
http://people.debian.org/~cts/debian-m68k/potato/debian-vme.txt

but do not intend to update them anymore since its time that m68k specific
docs are merged into the main documentation. Maybe you want the install
manual to point to those pages, but clearly state that they are outdated and
we are looking for people to help merging them.

This script has not been used in ages AFAIK.
