Comments/Problems:  The first error I saw is the screen in the debian installer
has a red background rather then the expected blue.  Minor issue.  However, my
real problem came when rebooting.  yabootconfig labled my root device as
/dev/sdb which is how it detected in the running kernel of the installer:
/var/log/debian-installer/syslog:
Feb  9 14:05:52 kernel:   Type:   Direct-Access                      ANSI SCSI revision: 05
Feb  9 14:05:52 kernel: SCSI device sdb: 312581808 512-byte hdwr sectors (160042 MB)
Feb  9 14:05:52 kernel: SCSI device sdb: drive cache: write back
Feb  9 14:05:52 kernel:  [mac] p1 p2 p3 p4 p5
Feb  9 14:05:52 kernel: Attached scsi disk sdb at scsi1, channel 0, id 0, lun 0

because there is a "mystery device" at sda:
Feb  9 14:05:21 kernel: Attached scsi removable disk sda at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0

info: /bin/report-hw: discover: ;;;Y-E DATA;USB-FDU;/dev/sda
info: /bin/report-hw: discover: ;;;ATA;ST3160023AS;/dev/sdb

However, when rebooting, the device is mounted as /dev/sda:

Feb  9 16:01:06 localhost kernel: SCSI device sda: 312581808 512-byte hdwr sectors (160042 MB)
Feb  9 16:01:06 localhost kernel: SCSI device sda: drive cache: write back
Feb  9 16:01:06 localhost kernel:  /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0: [mac] p1 p2 p3 p4 p5
Feb  9 16:01:06 localhost kernel: Attached scsi disk sda at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0

To get around this, I had to exec a shell in the installer to edit yaboot.conf
to read root=/dev/sda4 instead of root=/dev/sdb4.  Interestingly enough, I had
this problem with both -rc2 and the daily 20050208.  I also had this *same*
problem on an i686 machine (though at the time I though the mystery device was
an external usb floppy, so I didn't file a bug).

Finally, sound doesn't work but that is not surprising since I have heard G5
sound was not supported.

   [ Colin Watson ]
   * Merge from Ubuntu:
     - Escape spaces, tabs, newlines, and backslashes in fstab according to
       the procedure described in getmntent(3) (LP: #38224).
     - Issue an error message if two file systems are assigned the same label
       (LP: #320872).
     - Revamp filesystem mounting. We now default to using UUID= fstab syntax
       for all partitions if a UUID is available; this is controllable by
       preseeding partman/mount_style (choices: traditional, label, uuid).
       Add a comment above each label or UUID fstab entry to indicate the
       corresponding device at install time (closes: #225802).
   * Don't display the Back button while checking partitioning and displaying
     errors as a result, since we ignore backup there anyway (closes:
     #368294).
   * Fix proper_mountpoints check to cope with mountpoints containing commas.
   * Use block-attr from di-utils 1.68.
 .
   [ Max Vozeler ]
   * Use udevadm instead of udevinfo if available (closes: #530904).
