Yesterday I did a Debian installation on a rx6600 using the latest installation image available ATM ([1]) and that went through w/o any
real problems using only the defaults in "normal" installation mode.
Congratulations, Adrian! :-)

I created fresh images today, maybe you want to try the latest ia64 image
as well so we know that works, too [1].

I tried the one from today on the rx2660 I have at home ATM. The rx6600
is at a remote location but offline.
Unfortunately the new image shows a problem during the initial
`debootstrap` run for "vim-tiny" and "vim-common". Looks like their
versions were different during creation of the image:

Just tested this one and this time the installation fails after "tasksel": (...)
Maybe I should try at a later date.

BTW, maybe it's just a feeling, but from my memory these version number "mismatches" seem to happen very often for ia64, but are not so common
for other ports architectures. Is there something different in the
package build process on ia64 compared to other architectures that leads
to (more) broken dependencies?

Should be fixed in today's image [1].
