Package: boot-floppies Version: 3.0.23 CD image: debian-30r0-powerpc-binary-1_NONUS.iso MD5: 59437e412f1779b603dca0a677b20e82
Note on version number: /sbin/dbootstrap identifies itself as belonging to boot-floppies 3.0.23 in the opening "Release Notes", but the list of package sources ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/Debian3.0r0/main/source/Sources.gz MD5: 2162652a5bd38112f2c6f8c0bb4403d6 says it's version 3.0.22. Huh? My machine (iBook Firewire) doesn't have any mass storage devices except a CD-ROM drive, and in this test nothing is plugged into the USB or Firewire port.
