I tried the new image "debian-10.0-powerpc-grub-NETINST-1.iso" from [1] on a PowerMac11,2 (Power Mac G5).
I was able to boot the cd with GRUB, but I was not able to run the installer. To boot the image, I dd'ed it on a USB drive and booted with OpenFirmware by using the following commands: boot ud:,\boot\grub\powepc.elf boot ud:,\\:tbxi boot ud:,\System\Library\CoreServices\grub.elf I see grub and I can select "default install", but after that I end up with a blank screen from Open Firmware telling me "Invalid memory access". MD5SUM from my USB stick is the same as the downloaded is, as to say: 433d57104eaca06cd450d87f7f63e368 I also tried to boot the same USB drive on a PowerMac6,4 (eMac G4), but I was not able to list the files contained in the file system. I used the command: dir /pcif2000000/usb@1b/disk@1:,\ which returned me "can't OPEN the DIR device". If someone can see an error in this last OF line, please let me know. Regards A.
