Hello!
I have created updated installation images for Debian Ports.
These can be found here:

On ia64, these images should be usable on all machines again since
the previous regression in kernel 6.1 has been fixed in 6.3 which

Hi Adrian,
Right, this completely fell of the table. I will try to prepare the changes for
the upcoming weekend. However, due to the current freeze for Debian Bookworm, I
cannot commit anything.
