Re: testing beyond Intel [PATCH]

[Rick_Thomas <rbthomas@rcthomas.org>]

Miroslav and/or Sven,

Please see my offer to help (with the same "subject" as this item --
posted to the debian-boot mailing list).

I would be very grateful If you (or someone else on this list) could
point me at the chapters and sections of the PowerPC debian-installer
docs that are most seriously out of date, and give me a few hints as to
where to look for the raw information that I can turn into the needed
updates.

I am a competent technical writer and a native speaker of English with a
long background in UNIX, but I am just beginning with Debian Linux
(Having mostly used RedHat and/or Yellowdog in the past).  Please
forgive me if I ask what seem like stupid questions while I'm learning
to do things the "Debian way".

I can read code or changelogs, if that's the only way to figure out
what's going on, but design documents or programmer's notes will be the
most directly helpful.

Also remember that I have only about an hour a day that I can afford to
give to this project, so progress may not be rapid -- especially while
I'm still learning where things are and how they work.

Enjoy!

Rick
