Hi Adrian,

In order to be able to reproduce, I started all over again. Using the same
CD (
https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/ports/snapshots/2023-06-18/debian-12.0.0-powerpc-NETINST-1.iso
), booted and performed the installation. Formatted all the partitions
clean.
I skipped the mirror stage and stick to CD-only installation.
Came again to the point where powerpc-ieee1275 is being installed and the
system hangs there, waiting for the process to finish.
Again, in the system console, I get this:

INFO: task grub-install:7444 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
      Not tainted 6.3.0-1-powerpc #1 Debian 6.3.7-1
...
...
(call trace comes here)

Is it something about this particular iMac model? What can I do?

Regards,
