You will likely run into problems updating from Debian Jessie to unstable
as you are skipping more than one release.
Also, you are installing a 32-bit userland on a 64-bit capable machine.
*sigh*
I will wipe out the whole install and start over.
I'm not sure why people have such a hard time installing one of the older
Yaboot images I created:
https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/ports/10.0/
Well, I have worked on this all night long, a solid 8 hours with four
dvd image burns, multiple installs and failures. Never was able to get
a bootable running machine until I resorted to an old iso I had laying
about. It was from 2017 and it worked but is 32-bit userland. So I
don't want that.
I may as well start over.
ISO images I did try :
nix$
nix$ ls -1 *ppc*
debian-10.0-ppc64-NETINST-1_2018-05-18.iso
debian-10.0-ppc64-NETINST-1_2019-04-11.iso
debian-10.0-ppc64-NETINST-1_2019-11-24.iso
debian_ppc64_jessie_8.7.1_201701161157.iso
nix$
None work except the jessie_8.7.1 iso from 2017.
Just skip the part where the debian-installer wants to download and install extra
software. That won't work as the keyring shipped on the installation image
is too old for the release file on the server. The moment you will have
rebooted the machine, you can install the updated keyring and update your
installation
Well I can try again in a day. I have been through two machines and
multiple dvd images to try and get an install that at least boots in
some way. So most people give up after five or six hours of failure but
after 8 hours I did get this :
enceladus#
enceladus# uname -a
Linux enceladus 3.16.0-4-powerpc64 #1 SMP Debian 3.16.39-1 (2016-12-30)
ppc64 GNU/Linux
enceladus#
enceladus# cat /etc/debian_version
8.7
enceladus#
enceladus# file /bin/ls
/bin/ls: ELF 32-bit MSB executable, PowerPC or cisco 4500, version 1

2.6.32, BuildID[sha1]=0df7824beee652b633c8eb50e7c63844510645f8, stripped
enceladus#
Not quite what I wanted but it is a start.
Perhaps the problem is that I am trying to use the expert install option
and should just do the basic default install and accept whatever the
parted disk layout results from the guided partitioner.
