Comments/Problems:
I manually tried creating my own partition scheme. This failed for what reason I dont know. Modifying the guided partition scheme eventually worked for my needs.
Manually editing the sources.list to begin with created a headache. debconf always added additional sources to what had been manually entered, I resorted to editing them manually and removing the entries that were not needed.
Gnome-panel and nautilus were crashing upon my first boot into gnome. First I tried compiling nautilus and gnome-panel but I couldnt find package gdk-pixbuf-csource or its parent. It was required during ./configure. Changing my sources.list to unstable and upgrading them eventually gave me a working gui.
Device pmu was not created during install as pmud was not installed. I apt-get install pmud and chmod 666 /dev/pmu and sound worked and the error message from gnome about no /dev/pmu or wrong permissions on /dev/pmu abated.
Thanks for the great product and keep up the good work. By the way when will the mach and hurd be running on the ppc?
Eric

We are closing this installation report for one of the following
reasons:
- it was reported with a pre-lenny version of Debian
Installer.
- indications in the installation report give the feeling that
the reported problem waslying in another software, unrelated to
D-I, which we can't easily identify.
- indications in the installation report suggest that it may have been
fixed in a more recent version of a D-I component
- it was successful and we forgot closing it..:-)
- it has no information we consider useful
The D-I team is currently in the process of cleaning out the old spool
of installation reports that haven't bene processed yet.
In case you think that the problem you reported has chances to be
still present, please reiterate your installation test with
a more recent image of D-I, if you're in position of doing this.
You'll find daily builds at
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer. We recommend you choose
the netboot image, in the "daily builds section", then choose to
install "squeeze" when prompted.
If some problems are found, please report them with a new bug sent
against installation-reports.
Many thanks for your understanding and your help improving Debian,
past and present.
