Hello, I would like to push a couple of fixes into 6.0.1 which prevent people from completing the installation on a wide array of sparc machines:
http://bugs.debian.org/608516: niu network driver is not included in the installer udebs. This prevents network detection during the installation on newer T2+ sparc systems. Proposed patch is committed to git: http://git.debian.org/?p=d-i/linux-kernel-di-sparc-2.6.git;a=commit;h=255af4217d51fc32eeb0b844884a7244656b0675 http://bugs.debian.org/610906 pata_cmd6x (and other pata drivers) are missing from installer initrd. This prevents CD-ROM drive detection during installation, making install from any CD media impossible (and, unfortunately, there is no simple workaround - the only way to avoid this is to netboot). Proposed patch is committed to git: http://git.debian.org/?p=d-i/debian-installer.git;a=commit;h=be086ccd9915f029a5de5b7fc1829fdab80f0a67 I would like your blessing to upload these changes to stable.
