• Powermac G5 Sid Grub

    From Dan Whitehouse@21:1/5 to All on Tue Jan 25 19:10:01 2022
    Hi, I’m having trouble installing Sid on my G5.
    The issue is documented in this YouTube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-Ugfqj1ank <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-Ugfqj1ank>

    And it appears to be related to hfsprogs.
    If anyone can offer advice or a more Debian centric workaround I’d be grateful.

    Thanks,

    Dan

    OK, answering my own question it appears this was just a case of the install media not fully working.
