Dear Maintainer, I don't know if I write on the good place for this bug, so fell free to move it to most suitable place. I have
downloaded debian-testing-powerpc-netinst.iso 2015-01-05 with wget -c and then I have checked the SHA512SUMS of the download file
with openssl dgst -sha512 debian-testing-powerpc-netinst.iso and the sum matches with SHA512SUMS on website. So then I have burned a
CD-R disk with the previous named iso. Again, I have checked the SHA512SUMS of the iso burn on CD, the sums matches. Then, I put the
CD on my PowerMac G4 Gigabit Ethernet and hold on the keyboard key named Option for booting on it. The CD doesn't appear on boot
screen. I make this twice, first with a CD-R from imation, then with a CD-R from maxell, same results. Then I have checked my CD-DVD
drive by booting on my previous install CD : debian-7.4.0-powerpc-netinst.iso and I succeed to boot. Thanks for your time on it.

Since this report references booting a powerpc machine, which is no longer
supported by current release, I'm closing this report as no longer relevant.
