Bug#301504: Debian Installer RC 3 on PARISC
After doubling the ramdisk_size to 32768 and using a serial terminal as
console (on ttyS0), the installer worked fine.
So:
Package: installation-reports
Debian-installer-version: RC3
uname -a: palinux
Date: Thu Mar 31 15:08:17 CEST 2005
Method: Booted from CD
Machine: Hewlett Packard 9000-712/60
Processor: PA-Risc 1.1d - PA7100 LC (PCX-L)
Memory: 64 MB
Root Device: SCSI, /dev/sda
Root Size/partition table: 625 MB
Output of lspci: N/A

Comments/Problems:
Afterwards I had to modify /etc/inittab and reconfiguring console-data to get
my console back on tty0 with the correct keyboard. But that has nothing to do
with the installer.
