I am trying to install from Debian Testing netinst iso on an old Powerbook G4 using the 'hd-media' kernel, initrd and yaboot.conf from
http://people.debian.org/~wouter/d-i/powerpc/daily/powerpc/hd-media/ I have tried several recent daily builds, all with the same result. Latest is 2007-07-29. Boot is successful and I choose the language OK, but then get the following when choosing the keyboard: Jan 1 00:02:44 main-menu[1016]: INFO: Menu item 'kbd-chooser' selected Jan 1 00:02:44 main-menu[1016]: INFO: Falling back to the package description for console-keymaps-usb Jan 1 00:02:44 main-menu[1016]: INFO: Falling back to the package description for console-keymaps-at Jan 1 00:02:44 main-menu[1016]: INFO: Falling back to the package description for console-keymaps-usb Jan 1 00:02:44 main-menu[1016]: INFO: Falling back to the package description for console-keymaps-at Jan 1 00:02:44 main-menu[1016]: (process:1308): kbd-chooser: relocation error: kbd-chooser: symbol sprintf, version GLIBC_2.0 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference Jan 1 00:02:44 main-menu[1016]: WARNING **: Configuring 'kbd-chooser'failed with error code 127 Jan 1 00:02:44 main-menu[1016]: WARNING **: Menu item 'kbd-chooser' failed.

The Powerbook is old and clunky (in fact the CD drive does not work, which is why I am trying to install from USB) so I am reluctant to claim a bug. But I do see some earlier reports of installation problems with libc and wonder if this is related. thanks for any advice.
