2001-11-01 Thread Chris Tillman
I'm trying to get a few old bugs closed, and I wondered if you have tried debian again more recently on your PB3400. There have been quite a few kernel improvements since 2.2.17 for powerpc, and the boot system has been greatly improved. I think this bug can be closed now, can you verify that?
