Enjoy!

Everything seems to be fine, but when it comes time to reboot, it boots into

There are a bunch of links that are claimed to be for draft release notes for
Buster.
Unfortunately, all of them wind up at “Page not found”.
Is this deliberate? Or is it possibly a result of some recent change of
servers, or
just comment out the security.debian.org

So somehow the u-boot binary on the uSDcard is getting clobbered in the

I'm guessing the keyboard that worked is not USB???

Is there some way to tell the debian installer to enable an ssh server during
the installation? I'd like to be able to ssh/slogin/scp to the installation
process so I can retrieve log files and otherwise snoop the process when the
keyboard/mouse are frozen.
This is part of my pursuit of Bug#7
nks!

on PowerPC?
I have had success but I am using an old 'YDL Power Station' with
PPC970MP processors.
I just tried the amd64 daily-builds netinst CD. I did not have this
problem. The USB keyboard was recognized and functioned as expected.
So what's it about PowerPC ???

Bug#728936 is preventing me from installing/testing Jessie on any of
me PowerMac test machines.
Has anyone succeeded in installing from a daily- or weekly- build
netinst CD on a PowerMac in the last couple of months?
Thanks!

We already have such a template, but it says "on the first PRIMARY

Here's the situation...
I want to try installing without internet access. I have excellent
internet access at home, but there are enough folks on the users list
who don't enjoy that privilege. I'd like to be able to help them with
useful answers. Hence my questions...
I've jigdo'ed a full

If you prefer a different one, append
