This is using the daily build sarge-ia64-buisnesscard.iso, dated
30-DEC-2003 11:02.
Installing sarge didn't work, because it doesn't have the newest
debootstrap, so I used it to install sid. This is the first time I've
tried d-i for a few weeks, and some things have broken in the meantime.

It is referenced from inittab.install, part of boot-floppies, so
maybe dbootstrap could copy it in to /target/sbin when it copies

I haven't been able to track down exactly why, but this change breaks
powerpc (at least).
During install on hppa I see two error dialogs:
Could not stat file /target/usr/share/zoneinfo/localtime.
Could not stat file localtime.
They appear to be due to my libc6-2.2.1 containing:

Debian boot-floppies for m68k hang in init on bootup. This is because
of a change in size of struct sysinfo between 2.2 and 2.4 kernels.
Only a problem on m68k, because it aligns 32 bit words to 16 bit
boundaries. Basically, the struct has some padding which is supposed
to make it 64 bytes
First, does anyone really need both libncurses4 and libncurses5?
Second, do we want to include libterm-stool-perl and libterm-slang-perl
so the debconf slang frontend works?

Hi,
This patch adds to the partial hppa support already in b-f. The
documentation certainly needs more work, but I do produce working
