INSTALL REPORT
Debian-installer-version: 25-01-2004 powerpc netinst sid_d-i iso from gluck=

[O] =3D OK, [E] =3D Error (please elaborate below), [ ] =3D didn't try it
Comments/Problems:
boot from cd works ok (and closes #226447) but main-menu comes up with a red
background for normal questions and blue background for warnings!
switching to console 4 shows tail unable to find /var/log/syslog (and in fa=
ct
syslogd didn't started!), manually starting syslogd from console 2 still do=
esn't
create /var/log/syslog (there's only /var/log/messages)
"eth0 switching to forced 10bt" is printed at regular intervals in the curr=
ent
console (apart from 1) and it changes from "10bt" to "100bt" and back again=
to
"10bt" and so on
=20
I previously had to shrink my hfs+ partition with a patched parted (see #22=
6115)
and then I partitioned the free space with d-i but had to reboot to see new=
ly
created partitions.
d-i installed base into /target and then happily prompt it hadn't installed=
a
boot loader, after it asked for reboot.
please contact me if you need other informations! I'll keep on testing sid_=
d-i
isos on this powerbook and thanks for the great debian-installer!

I'm closing this installation report, since request(s) for more information
were not answered. If you still experience the problem, or if you can tell
us the information we originally asked for, please write back and tell us.
Note that much newer versions of the installer are now available, which fix
a lot of bugs, including possibly the ones you reported.
