Hello,
Bad memory modules can actually result in such weird behavior. We've seen similar reports before.
When I have time, I'll run a memory test. Can this be done from OF? What commands should I use?
You can also create a fresh chroot from unstable using debootstrap and that pivot the root file systems.
Good idea. I didn't think about debootstrap.
Creating custom images takes quite some work. An outdated guide can be found here:https://wiki.debian.org/PortsDocs/CreateDebianInstallerImages?highlight=%28%5CbCategoryPorts%5Cb%29
I actually got pretty far in my original attempt; I got stuck in the part where I had to patch d-i for yaboot. These new ideas of a memory fix and using debootstrap for a new chroot give me hope.
Thanks again, -- Ben Westover
