With great thanks to John Paul Adrian Glaubitz we see new test images
have landed :

    https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/ports/snapshots/2022-03-28/

Therefore I shall jump on that right away and begin a test install
on my dual disk PowerMac G5 "quad" and I hope for wonderful things.

FWIW, I successfully tested those images myself on powerpc and sparc64.


Oh, also I have a sparc netra standing by to test with also. However I
generally need to dd if=foo.iso of=/dev/other_scsi_disk  just to get
the sparc to boot the installer image. So that takes a bit of fiddling
around with disks.  I may setup TFTP/Bootp and DHCP but that it even
more work just for a real network based install.

Anyways ... I'll have a look at sparc64 also today. Maybe.
