Package: Debian-installer
Version: RC1 card decks, whatever's on ftp.debian.org on 20041015
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
If you try to install, using the Debian-installer RC1 boot card decks,
from ftp.us.debian.org (on 15 Oct 2004), d-i tries to install the s390x
kernel. Since this is on an s390 system (31-bit) rather than an s390x
system (64-bit), installation fails pretty gruesomely. This means that
no one on an S/390 system can install. That's bad.

No, that code is correct. The suffix is part of the kernel version.

| 2.4.27-1-s390=20
And kernel-image-2.4.27-1-s390 exists.
