deb-ppc: Is debian-configuration broken ?
I'm using a G4 machine and am having problems with debian-configuration.
It is using the dialog interface. I manage to get through stuff like
setting up the network but when it asks me about using md5 passwords, I
find that the keyboard no longer responds. I try to break to another
console by pressing ctrl-apple-f2 but that seems to be interpreted as
the enter key. I can not break out of the program with ctrl-c or any
other key combination I try. The only thing I can do is press the reset
button. The other problem is that it automatically boots into this
program when I reboot.
Has anyone had similar problems ?
Has anyone got any ideas on how I can configure using standard text
terminal instead of the dialog box interface ? (I'm not sure it will
fix the problem but I can only try).
How can I boot without the debian-configuration app firing up ?
Thanks,
Brendan Simon.
