Hi Jaime,
OK, I'll try to reproduce this on my iBook G4 as well.
I'm pretty sure though that FAT32 support should just work, but we'll see.
As for the LLVM issue: There are some limitations with LLVM on 32-bit
PowerPC,
so we may have to turn off llvm-softpipe for the time being on 32-bit
PowerPC.

It's an iBook G4 (Powerbook6,7)
This is the output of inxi -v 8 (needed to install FileZilla to push
it via FTP since the system refuses to mount USB devices, even my ext4
External HDD) also had to turn down UI scale to 75% since there's no
window decoration, can't resize them and the save button was offscreen.

Hello Jaime,
What machine did you install Debian on? What are the specs (GPU, CPU,
machine type etc)?
Adrian
Jaime Antonio González <mailto:[email protected]>
March 22, 2026 at 12:23 AM
hi! I installed Debian 13 from the linked ISO and it installs
perfectly, but I have a couple downsides.
First, it doesn't recognize my FAT32 thumbdrive (even when the
installed did to pull the b43 firmware files from)
Second, from the second reboot onwards, XFCE crashes, I no longer have
window controls.
Trying to run it from terminal gives the following error: LLVM error
relocation type not implemented
Same goes for glxgears.
