Debian SPARC December 13 on t5240 notes (dual 8 core, 96gb ram)
When booting from usb(tried multiple usb drives and cd's), the installer interface is corrupted, each line is offset and resizing the command line window makes it worse.
During the manual partition setup, the partition size is already written but is invisible, it needs to be removed to successfully resize it.

Tried repartitioning and reinstalling base but always the same. also verified cdrom integrity and was valid. Below is the log which can be accessed by pressing CTRL-A.

The previous iso
(2016-05-04) worked fine beside the "Select and Install Software" step, using it right now. Also no success yet with partman-zfs (tried setting up
RaidZ2 on 7x 300gb drives, always fails).
Thanks for all who works on this project!
