That is, not because I say so, but de facto, because it wouldn't have a bootable kernel for old world. Last week I upgraded the appropriate kernel bug (#375035) to grave (which makes it RC), which means the bug will be fixed, someone will demonstrate that it's just me and the other guy (and downgrade the bug), or old world will be dropped. I prefer #1, but #2 at least means some people can use old world mac with debian (though until #1 happens I won't be able to verify that etch works with old world, because #2 means *I* still have a non-useable system). Apparently there's a new kernel package recently uploaded, so once I can try installing I'll see what state we're in. Cheers, Daniel - -- And that's my crabbing done for the day.
