The only powerpc computer that I have (PS3) is the one that I'm
trying to install :(

I think someone reported that there were images from last year which
worked -- I think at this stage installing by fair means or foul in
order to have a dev & test environment would be advantageous.

maybe Rick had other machines previously installed and he could run
the cdebconf powerpc version.

I do have such machines, and I'd be happy to do that, but I'll need
instructions, since I've never done it before.

I think Julian has proved that it is cdebcof-get which is the issue.

I'd recommend grabbing cdebconf from the d-i svn repo and building a few
test versions at various points between 0.145 and 0.146. Just running
cdebconf-get from the built source tree may prove informative.

Ian.

Once again, I have the hardware and the will to do it, but I don't have the know-how. If you are willing to walk me through the steps needed to implement the plan of:

... grabbing cdebconf from the d-i svn repo and building a few

I'll be happy to help in the debugging.

Thanks!

Rick
