Package: debian-installer
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


debian-installer offers to install a Debian system on an external
Firewire drive in the partitioning menu. However, installation of yaboot
fails if _any_ system partition is on a Firewire device, even if the
boot partition for yaboot itself was created on the primal IDE device.

In other words, it seems to be impossible to install DebianPPC on
anything but internal (IDE) hard drives.
