Hi Adrian,

First, thank you for the great work you do with the NetInst images for m68k, I 
really appreciate the effort of keeping Linux alive on this architecture.

I should have on my hands shortly a 060 accelerator for my Amiga 1200 that 
would allow me to test the image on real hardware. Meanwhile I tested it on 
WinUAE and it looks like most of the installation is working correctly. However 
I am hitting some difficulties with the disk partitioning.

Before running the kernel and debian-installer I set up my harddrive with 
HDToolbox as told in [1]. It looks like the kernel can identify correctly my 
partition scheme as seen in [2] and... although the partitioner tool in the 
installer recognizes the harddisk at /dev/hda, it is not able to identify any 
existing partitions, as seen in [3].

A test I was able to complete successfully is to open an installer console 
(ALT+F2) and format my partition /dev/hda3 with mkfs.ext2. I can also mount it 
on the console. However, regardless of that, the installer partitioner won't 
detect it. Is there something that I am missing?

Some additional information:
        * Harddisk size: 32 GB
                - /dev/hda1 AFFS    - 518 MB
                - /dev/hda2 AFFS    - 12 GB
                - /dev/hda3 LNX\0  - 8 GB
                - /dev/hda4 SWP\0 - 512 MB
                - /dev/hda5 NBR\0  - 8 GB
                - /dev/hda6 NBS\0  - 512 MB
        * Emulated Amiga: 1200
        * ROM: 3.2 (the new one from Hyperion)
        * CPU: 60860
        * Chip RAM: 2 MB
        * Fast RAM: 128 MB
        * Harddisk interface: built-in A1200 IDE
        * Installation media: CD-ROM (built-in A1200 IDE)
        * Network hardware: Commodore A2065
        * Graphics: AGA

Asunto: Update Debian Ports installation images 2021-04-14

Hello!

I just uploaded updated Debian Ports installation images that were created 
today and ship with the latest Debian unstable kernel (5.10) and all other 
packages updated to their latest version in Debian unstable.

If you test these images, please let me know if you run into any issues.

Adrian
