Yet another observation... loading the nonfree firmware and booting the
kernel with the nomodeset parameter helps a bit: the display is
discernable, but not yet usable.

Hi,
Similar experience with a blue iMac and
debian-502a-powerpc-xfce+lxde-CD-1.iso today: install proceeds normally
but on reboot X doesn't get past a blank screen.
/etc/X11/xorg.conf has no content (exists, but zero length).

can also choose to install no tasks, and force the installation of a set

What is the correct way of preseeding to install no tasks?

Hi,
I've been, mostly successfully, customising the etch Netinst with
preseeding.
But... I added a few more debs to the pool and rebuilt Packages[.gz] with

Hi,
I've been customising Debian installation with preseeding using a preseed
file on the Netinst CD, which is mostly working out OK.
However, one point eludes me - getting a question to be always asked,
