Oh, if it is the js20, i think we had had some report of people trying to make it work some time back. I don't think d-i is already upto it, but the work Cajus is doing should help. There may be kernel issues, but maybe the latest bunch of 970Fx fixes will help, or maybe you need a ppc64 kernel. All in all, it should be possible to make debian work on it, i don't know if it is at this time an easy out of the box task though, but it certainly will be in the next few month. Especially if you can do a bunch of tests on them. Friendly, Sven Luther
