On the “Detect and mount installation media” step, I get, “Your installation media couldn’t be mounted. “
I burned debian-12.0.0-ppc64-NETINST-1.iso on a 4GB USB drive with rufus-4.9p.exe. Rufus said it had to use the dd method. When the iMac G5 is booted up with Mac OS X Version 10.5.8, I can see and browse the USB drive and read text files on it. I can boot to the USB drive with Federico Vaga’s excellent post ( https://lists.debian.org/debian-powerpc/2024/02/msg00007.html => boot usb0/disk@1:,\boot\grub\powerpc.elf), and the Debian installation seems to proceed fine until I get to this error. “Your installation media couldn’t be mounted... “ “Retry mounting installation media?” I have not been able to get the Built-in Ethernet port nor a USB to Ethernet dongle to work when booted in Mac OS X, but I was hoping the Debian installation media could work with either of those two Ethernet hardware options. I do not have a WiFi card in this iMac G5, apparently. Any ideas, please? --- debian-12.0.0-ppc64-NETINST-1.iso SHA256: 1483ae25b215e69cbd2268b4aa58b23bc7f5522f6fc5697213af39cee6704c50 rufus-4.9p.exe SHA256: 497f796e6d076d4855d697965c04626e6d3624658fce3eca82ab14f7414eede2 ---
