Bug Description

Binary package hint: debian-installer

I just tried installing the hardy alpha 1 release on my UltraSparc 10. Installation goes fairly well until the step of installing the bootloader. Errors happen, things break, installation stops. Let me know what other information you may want in regards to this bug.

Please attach /var/log/syslog from the installer (or /var/log/installer/syslog if you've managed to reboot). For future reference, this goes for all installer bugs.

Changed in debian-installer:
