In order to be able to reproduce, I started all over again. Using the same

I skipped the mirror stage and

Perhaps someone else has a system with more memory, or set up better than mine,
that could help.

It is actually possible, however, to use transpile the JavaScript files from
x86_64
for 32-bit PowerPC so that NodeJS is actually not needed. The Debian package
does
not implement such a mechanism at the moment though while Oracle does it on
Solaris
for SPARC [1].
Anyways, this particular crash a k

firefox/unstable,now 119.0.1-1 ppc64
and it has a segmentation fault when you launch it.

Did you try the latest version 119?
If there is a patch which fixes the crash on big-endian targets, we could
include it in the Debian package or I could try to get it merged upstream.

Hi Adrian,
Firefox does not work.

I am aware of a few projects out there working to try to keep a repackaged
TenFourFox going that have *.deb archives available, and I think there are some
official channels for a few different browsers inside debian (Firefox,
Epiphany).
Does anyone have or know about a browser they use on

Hi all,
I found a way to boot the recent Debian installer images and to boot the
created disk. In the example I created a 20G debian12.qcow2 file.
Install from the NETINST-1.iso:
qemu-system-ppc \
-L pc-bios \
-boot d \
-M mac99 \
-m 2048 \
-prom-env 'auto-boot?=true' \
Source: mpch
Version: 4.1.2-2

Hello!
The configure scirpt for src:mpich is run with --with-ucx on ppc64 despite
the architecture not being whitelisted in the architecture check in
into drives that are sliced and diced
to contain a number of systems . . . .
I used to run installs "install alongside OSX" back in the day . . . I
can't recall if the Debian installer offered me that option recently when I
ran into the process a fair ways before aborting out of it . .
