Ah, right. Since the debian-installer GRUB test image doesn't contain Yaboot
anymore, Frank cannot steal of the "ofpath" utility from Yaboot and repurpose
it for GRUB.
So, we need

Switch to a second console with Alt+Cursor, the log file is located
in /var/log/syslog.

I believe this boot script is causing a problem when trying to boot from
USB. Normally I would do:
boot usb0/disk:,\\BootX

Yes, the images currently don't contain any firmware. I will work on the
firmware issues once I have

This is the kernel image, not the GRUB image.
The boot script has:
boot :,\System\Library\CoreServices\grub.elf
So, try booting \\System\Library\CoreServices\grub.elf.

On my iBook G4, I can boot the installer from USB with:
boot usb0/disk:,\\grub.elf
(Note that you do not specify a partition.)

Tried the GRUB image with the following path:
boot usb1/disk@1:2,\install\vmlinux
I guess this is wrong, because I got the message:

The new bootloader for the *installed* system is GRUB, the bootloader
for the installer is going to be GRUB within the

There is a known bug when running the installer in a language other
than English. Please run the installer in English.

Hello!
I just created the first test image for debian-installer which boots
with GRUB instead of Yaboot. The image is available from the usual
location for GRUB tests:

Feel free to test and report back. It boots fine on my iBook G4.
Adrian
Finally the installation is running with the following command:
boot usb0/disk@1:2,\install\yaboot
I thought the new bootloader is GRUB?
Thanks in advance
