Dennis,

Before you give up, have you tried installing 'debian-ports-archive-keyring' from the Sid repository?

The May 2018 builds will complain if that isn't installed post-installation.

fyi .. tried :

No support for architecture powerpc from there. so ...?

I think you have to use ports, like this:

deb 

http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports

 sid main

Right .. I found an older email post by John Paul Adrian Glaubitz which

clarified that for me.  However that doesn't work as a gpg key is needed

which can be handled due to the fact that gpg does not exist in the

system.  Maybe the installer knows better however nothing could be

fetched during install.  Also DHCP was forced during install and there

never was a question to setup network. Really the expert installer is

what is needed here.

I will try again today and then scrap the idea.
