2.0.2-2 doesn't build on my powerbook (sid environment). Binaries
are not available. Binaries earlier than buster are not applicable
as they were build against an older glibc ABI, sigh.

No. grub was working perfect for about 4 years now. From of prompt

Ok, that's an important piece of information that was missing.

Did you follow that guide?

Hi all,
I've rebooted my powerbook again via grub-ieee1275 and landet in
grub_rescue complaining "error symbol 'grub_term_highlight_color' not
found"
Various reports in the net recommend to purge grub completely and
reinstall. Did that supported by a install cd and chr
gs.debian.org !!!
A final question: should I update the wiki anyway ? Or now that the issue is
going to be fixed, we do not need to do it?
Thanks,
Fadi.

Thanks for investigating this and thanks for this information.

Hello Carlos!
Have you also tried a different USB pen drive (USB stick) yet? Some USB
devices use non-standard modes which may not be supported by Open Firmware.
Good luck,

When you follow the old doc:
Hello Luke,
sadly, I don’t find the USB key.
If I type devalias, it doesn’t also appear „ud“
Does this mean, my PowerBook isn’t able to boot from USB?
Because somewhere I have read, if „ud“ doesn’t appear, no USB booting possible.
Is it a OpenFirmware „problem“?
It’s the latest 12“ PowerBook
Debian from a USB-Stick, but sadly it fails.

Mathieu,
thanks for your help.
But sadly, I don’t find anything like:
/pci@f200
/usb@18
/disk@1
The „disk“ connected to USB I don’t find. But the LED on the USB-Stick is
burning.
Any ideas?

Hi Carlos, have you tried to write the complete OF boot path to the USB key?
Also on my PowerBook the shortcut wont run.
Bye.
