I tried yaird today. No luck same error message. Also tried the installer floppies with 2.6.16 from here: http://people.debian.org/~cjwatson/d-i/powerpc-miboot/2006-05-13/powerpc/floppy/boot.img and it booted. The installer never detected the disk correctly though. So it might be some kernel problem with ide disks on powerpc. -- Hans Ekbrand (http://sociologi.cjb.net) <hans@sociologi.cjb.net> Q.
