Hello Adrian
thank you very much,
i tried several images til now,
and it sseems that the Powermac G4 CD-Drive is a bit old or that the
Verbatim-CD are too shallow, and not being recognized;
Your Unofficial Image was out of 4 the only one that being bootable with
"ALT" Key at the Boot-Up; because i used a differnt CD Media for it.
but i found out that the other ones were being unbootable because apparently
the CD Quality of the Blank Media is somehow not fully compatible with the CD
Drive
So, i could install your NetInstaller Unofficial SID Image,
but it would not load Yaboot at the reboot as was expected;
The Partitioning went fine; but did i miss something - did i need to do expert
install?
Thank you again,
Richard

Hi Richard!
Please don't hijack discussions but open a new thread for that. Otherwise
the discussion becomes hard to follow in the mailing list archives.
if i install Wheezy on Powermac G4,
can i then update to Stretch?
You can update it to Sid. There is no Stretch for PowerPC.
To upgrade, just replace "wheezy" with "sid" in your /etc/apt/sources.list.
Or do i need to install Stretch from Netinstall to succeed?
No.
Where could i download such image?
Download "all files in zip" [1]. The ISO is contained in the ZIP file.
