-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi,
last week I had the opportunity to do a quick test of d-i on a few sparc and powerpc machines at my former workplace. Here is how it went on a IBM RS/6000 B50 It really did not go well at all. I tried two different B50s, but both gave me this, when it tried to boot off the RC1 netinst CD: RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 STARTING SOFTWARE RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 RS/6000 PLEASE WAIT...

I will not be able to test again on a B50 for some time, unfortunately, but let me know if you want me to try a different way of booting it (or other suggestions) the next time, I get the opportunity to test it (hopefully within a few weeks).
