sarge pre-rc2 debian-installer error on iMac G3



Hi,

I have an old iMac G3 Rev. B (Strawberry, Tray Loading) I've
successfully installed sarge pre-rc2 on it with the netinst boot CD.
However, during install after the partitioner had had a go at
partitioning the entire disk debian-installer reported that it needed a
figure (some where between 800000 and 900000 bytes) of partition for the
boot program.  A 1MB partition had been allocated but this was
apparently not large enough for the installer. I corrected the problem
by allocating partitions manually and giving the boot partition plenty
of space. 

Obviously I don't need support on this, its just that I can't find
anything  either in debian-user or the bug tracking system on this, if
its new it should go for low priority fixing.

Regards - Andrew
