Yeah, I was actually about to ask whether the criteria would be a NewWorld machine, but for some reason I didn't finish my sentence :O. > NewWorld are supposed to work. So the question is: does anyone still > has an OldWorld ? I tried installing on a PB3400 a while ago - didn't work, there are issues [1]. However, I'm not ruling out that other OldWorld machines work, so we could just try detecting the machine type in debian-installer and enable GRUB for the NewWorld machines only.
