Better use something like `cat /proc/partitions` to show the layout. `df` only shows mounted file systems. I did my own testing with `qemu-system-ppc` on Monday and the partitioning was done correctly for me. But I also found out that `grub-install` cannot successfully run inside `qemu-system-ppc`, as the internal call to `nvsetenv` - to set the NVRAM variable `boot-device - fails. As I didn't yet found a working solution to run an installationunder QEMU with a non-graphical console, I'll also post a picture: https://i.imgur.com/HLCRvbO.jpg The installation was done with the 2019-04-15 ISO image in normal mode and the picture shows the result of a manual invocation of the `grub-install` command line as used by the installer (with `-v` added). Because of the failing `nvsetenv`, `grub-install` exits with `1`. But up to that point all GRUB parts are actually already installed and work (you can e.g. boot it with `boot hd:2,\grub` with a single disk configuration using automatic partitioning), just the `/boot/grub/grub.cfg` is missing - so you have to supply the kernel and initramfs keywords manually on the GRUB prompt to boot - and a working value for `boot-device` (you can use the above one for example). Maybe a call to `update-grub` when chrooted to the target FS could create the missing `grub.cfg`, but I didn't test this as I was out of time. Cheers, Frank
