This problem does not occur on i386. It's specific to the PowerPC
installer.
(i386 sid d-i has other problems, but not any that are relevant to
this bug report)

the absolute latest) on an Apple PowerMac G4 tower. Installation was
completely nominal. No problems encountered.

When I try to download the multiarch (i386/amd64) DVD-1 using

I get Requested download is not authorized for use with this tracker
Am I doing something wrong? Or is the problem on the other end?
Thanks!

Is this deliberate?

This build finished at Mon Feb 15 04:17:52 UTC 2010. (for Squeeze)
The Sid d-i failed with seg-faults. The Squeeze d-i did *not*.
In fact, the squeeze d-i installer completed a normal installation and
booted just fine.
So... What do we do now?

a bit out of my usual line, so any advice from somebody who has done
it will be much appreciated!
Thanks!
