FYI, the 2006-06-20 amd64 netinst image is still using a 2.6.15
kernel, so I still get the same module load error. I've got a vested

me, so I'll keep relating my experience until I get the system up and

The ppc64 kernels are almost exactly the same as the powerpc64 kernels.

Hi all,
currently at least partman-lvm, partman-crypto and partman-md seem to
contain copies of confirm_changes() from partman-base/partman.
Would it perhaps be an idea to move confirm_changes into
/lib/partman/definitions.sh or is there a reason for the duplication?

First of all, this is a bit of a side issue since as noted any
reasonable current package that's translated with po-debconf is going to
use proper utf-8 fields.
