Bug#271314: (no subject)
Package: installation-reports
INSTALL REPORT
Debian-installer-version:
I used sarge-powerpc-netinst.iso obtained from
<URL:http://cdimage.debian.org/pub/cdimage-testing/sid_d-i/powerpc/20040911/>
Since the original image did not include usable SCSI module .udebs,
as reported separately in Bug#2....., I added them myself from the
nearest mirror and rebuilt.

Comments:
As always when installing on a PReP system, I had to drop into a
shell after finishing the installation in order to make the system
bootable from hard disk. Here are the exact steps:
chroot /target
sfdisk --change-id /dev/sda 1 41
dd if=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.8-powerpc of=/dev/sda1
I'm not sure whether it's worth the effort of teaching d-i to do this
for the user after asking whether it's okay.
