Opened Bug#978103 to remove Petitboot package from Debian:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=978103
-Geoff
Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal
Please remove petitboot. It is now obsolete and the package is unmaintained.
The Debian build is also not reproducible. See Bug#963119
-Geoff
Hi,
Petitboot is not receiving much maintenance these days, I think it
would be best to remove this package from Debian. What steps need
to be taken to remove it?

Sorry for the delay. I think the best solution is to drop the libtwin

This has not yet been fixed upstream.
The referenced patch in my coreos--coreos-overlay repo is just a local
work-around that reverts the etcd v2.1.2 to v2.2.0 update.

We still have a need for the kboot-utils package in debian. Recent
daily builds of D-I work fine on PS3, but the installed system still
cannot boot due to lack of a kboot.conf file for the PS3's native
bootloader (petitboot).

I just tried the latest testing CD (2000.02.12), and it still

installer fails on mounting the CD-ROM.
The PS3 ps3_gelic network and PS3 ps3rom and ps3disk storage
