Bug#295996: oldworld ppc sid install - success with manual help and quik+2.4.27, failure with 2.6.8



Hi,

some more updates, especially on 5.:

on 1.: imho clone this to have a dedicated bug. does this also happens with 
x86-floppies ? to which package should this bug be assigned ?

on 2.: ? (comments welcome)

on 3.: ? (comments welcome)

on 4.: 2.6.9 is still part of sid, 2.6.10 is still in new, so this issue is 
not existing. (as i'm sure somebody will take care of it...)

on 5.: cause: base-installer/kernel/linux/initrd is set to false, should be 
set to true (line 436 of base-installer's postinst) - svenl said on irc this 
should be fixed in rootskel, but didnt know where. this prevents kernel2.6 
with quik to work on oldworld... 

on 6.: 2.4 works but misses security fixes. (2.4 is considered obsolete for 
ppc by upstream) - this is merely an info.

on 7.: besides the scary text (which is debatable) the default should be "yes" 
and not "no" to install quik, if i just choose it. clone this bug and assign 
to quik-installer ?

on 8.:  I'm still not sure whether this is a bug in quikconfig (part of quik) 
or quik-installer.


regards,
 Holger
