It is likely that stuffit needs upgrading (I will check the installed version later on). Am I supposed to boot with the rescue disk from /debian/dists/sid/main/disks-powerpc/2.2.15-2000-0 6-07/powermac/images-1.44 like in the i386 architecture? Is there a BIOS like option to force the system to boot from Disk before the floppy is checked? disks-powerpc links from potato to sid on the german mirror ftp.debian.de. Is this correct? Thanks. Rainer.
