LET IT BE KNOWN: that OldWorld PPC sub-arch will not be supported directly in the new installer. i think this sucks. 1) there are plenty of still functional oldworld machines out there 2) i think it shows an utter lack of consideration for recycling, re-use of older hardware and the environment 3) is totally irresponsible 4) devfs is broken, crufty, and will be totally gone by 2.7 very likely, and using this will make oldworld installs impossible (at least from d-i; it'll still be possible to install from woody floppies and dist-upgrade). go ahead and ban my IP or SMTPd, i'm seriously thinking of moving to a *BSD now, and i'll make sure that anyone and everyone i know that uses oldworlds *DON'T* use debian sarge stable. and maybe even not debian, for making such IMO, dumb decisions. eric côté aka simonrvn on IRC -- ##-----------------------------------------------------------------## | http://www.nuit.ca/ | http://simonraven.nuit.ca/ | | PGP key ID: 6169 BE0C 0891 A038 | | ##-----------------------------------------------------------------##
