I do appreciate the feedback. But a more complete feedback with some pre-testing would be nice, anything that helps me spend less time and effort to get the issues sorted out. So, in general if you see a problem, try different configuration settings, check the logs yourself for suspicious messages and maybe try to reproduce the error on different architectures. Any test that may help pinpoint the problem is useful because it means I will have to spend less time doing that myself and can fix the issues more efficiently. You can also grep the debian-installer, GRUB and related sources on Salsa and sources.debian.org to see where the error message comes from. That information is very helpful, too, and it also helps you becoming more familiar with the code. >> This issue might not even specific to PowerMacs, so it >> would make more >> sense first to test this on x86 systems and report a bug against >> src:grub2 or partman-lvm >> if the issue shows there as well. > > I'll try that.
