Comments/Problems:
Installation proceeded without issue, using ftp-linux.cc.gatech.edu
mirror for unstable install. At around 76% completion of base system
installation, screen for choosing kernel was presented. The
2.6.8-powerpc kernel image was selected, and an error immediately
followed. Check the third virtual console showed:
<messages_excerpt>

You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
initrd-tools: Depends cramfsprogs (>= 1.1-4) but it is not going to
be installed
Depends dash but it is not going to be installed
libreadline4: Depends: libreadline-common but it is not going to be
installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or
specify a solution).

I ran a copy of the Debian Installer daily cd for 20041124, and the
install did not encounter this error. Apparently the issue has been
resolved.
