So it seems that I should try again but manually create a /boot

This could be entirely due to me using the "expert mode" :

I will re-try with the dummy trivial accept al
old machines after all with somewhat oddball
"open" firmware.
But it would be nice to have another big endian platform around other
than all my SPARC stuff. Of which I have stacks and stacks. That too has
a real problem somewhere in grub-mkconfig process but that is off topic
here. Sort
differ.
I have a ppc64 partman log file already from the 2021-01-03 installer :
https://beta.genunix.com/debian_boot/ppc64/partman_2021-01-03.txt
Currently working on the SPARC64 and then I will start to review the
sources and see if I can drag in some other smart people on this also.
