RE: Installing Debian on a RS/6000 Question
Sven,
Indeed ... when I do boot cdrom it reads the cdrom for 3 seconds, and then
stops !!

Ah, ...
That means that IBM PReP are probably not supported, since i think he tried
booting the prep kernel.
Kurt, this means you will have to netboot :
http://people.debian.org/~luther/d-i/images/daily/powerpc/netboot/vmlinuz-pr
ep.initrd
And no, i don't think the CD will work, as altough it contains all the
proper
prep magic, on my powerstack II, it will only read the CD forever and then
hang.
Friendly,
Sven Luther
