I posted, i.e., mailed, a summary of what is needed for a successful
install to 641...@bugs.debian.org. Have not seen anything show up on the

Repeat - to all this time:
Does the info I found here need to go into a bug report, or has someone

Hi,
in short:
1) upgrade yaboot pkg from wheezy (at least 1.3.16)
2) /vdevice will not work, use device=/dev/sda

Hello everyone,
I downloaded the debian netinstaller - debian-6.0.7-powerpc-netinst.iso -
and installed on a p505. The installation process goes well, but the boot
fails.
