Ok, thank you first for your answer. I don't need pcmcia on a server, so I'll
give it a try., since those you can actually deactivate in the install process.
One thing, is that this only applies to 2.6.18, while the images are 2.6.17
based yet.
Now my test runs, took longer than I thought.
First I messed up 2 cds by burning them withou yaboot and yaboot.conf and
boot.msg. I took the ones from the netinst directories then. Also I needed to
start via open-firmware ... but that are the small issues.
Why nto just burn the mini.iso, which contains all you need ?

Cool, this are nvidia ones. I would be interested in knowing what /proc/fb has
to say when you have this one booted.
Yep: Jen, we need to know output of
cat /proc/fb
lspci |grep VGA
cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep mainboard
to add your box to the database
Jan, please tell us if u can get g-i working on your box by doing this
-enter "install DEBIAN_FRONTEND=newt" at bootprompt
-switch to VT2
-echo disable-module=nvidia >>/etc/directfbrc
-export DEBIAN_FRONTEND=gtk
-debian-installer
thanks
