Either that or somebody has an agenda > of fucking up powerpc support in debian... For those who really, actually care about D-I support for PowerPC... Please take a look at the history for these two recent bug reports before forming your opinion: - http://bugs.debian.org/405572 - http://bugs.debian.org/405579 Oh, and also, it currently still looks like the issue that started this ridiculous thread _is_ actually resolved in the version of the installer that will be shipped with Etch... And so have most of the other PowerPC-specific issues that have been identified over the past few months... Please don't be fooled by the one-sided and biased information that you've been getting on this mailing list over the past months. The Debian Installer team _does_ care about properly supporting _all_ Debian ports, and spends significant amounts of time coordinating and testing the installer for _all_ ports. Just as the team cares about supporting as many languages as possible. Cheers, but getting tired of this unfounded bullshit, FJP
