By the way - I just looked at your installation instructions and I did not
find anything about how to install in POWER Server environment, i.e., as a
virtual machine (aka LPAR) on IBM POWER5 and later.
The ppc64le using KVM will obviously be different, but people using powerpc

I ask to reverse decision about "floppy-modules", because while
physical floppies aren't used in years, this functionality is very
much used for virtualization.
Like my vbox-unattened patch; Without floppy driver there will not be
an automated installer for Debian 8 VMs in VirtualBox.

Maybe - last time I tried - I mistyped the login - because login from
console is working for both - thanks for the reply.

anything extra blocking roo
Just read the link re: PermitRoot --without-password
My comment - typical "developer" string - because many people are looking
for passwordless login for root, and from my UNIX background I would take
"--without-password" very literally. I suspect what is intended is
"--no-password-auth-permitted"

No idea about GNU cpio.
Is it compatible with BSD cpio ?
I can't easily introduce new dependency for portable code. (host-side
must be very portable code)
It will require investigation.
Besides, this command didn't work for me. (preseed.cfg wasn't added)

I'd prefer not to introduce any new dependecies, for portability reasons.
Would like to have floppy support back.
