It is likely that stuffit needs upgrading (I will check the installed version 
later on). Am I supposed to boot with the rescue disk from

/debian/dists/sid/main/disks-powerpc/2.2.15-2000-0
6-07/powermac/images-1.44 

like in the i386 architecture? 

Is there a BIOS like option to force the system to boot from Disk before the 
floppy is checked?

disks-powerpc links from potato to sid on the german mirror ftp.debian.de. Is 
this correct?

Thanks.

Rainer.
