Bug#244539: about your Debian installation report
Hi Joey,
I received this:
Hello, I'm writing you because you filed an installation report a
while ago
on an old version of the debian installer. Your installation report
was #244539
and can be viewed online at <http://bugs.debian.org/244539>.
<SNIP>
I checked the report
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=244539
Its title is: Debian Bug report logs - #244539 [ppc] [20040416]
[netinst] firewire not supported
A message in the track states:
- Danish updates (Closes: #244539)
So I was kind of puzzled. I downloaded
http://cdimage.debian.org/pub/cdimage-testing/daily/powerpc/pre-rc2/
sarge-powerpc-netinst.iso
and tried installing on an external FW drive on my mac, including
yaboot on the external drive.
The "install yaboot" step of the installer fails with the following
message in the log:
ofpath: Driver: sbp2 is not supported
Note that:
- I ran in expert mode
- The partitioner had found Apple_bootstrap partitions on both my
internal drive and FW drive. I forced it not to use the internal one.
So I guess there was a mixup in bug tracking.
HTH
