Hi Adrian,
I used the 11/11/24 install image:
https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/ports/snapshots/2024-11-11/debian-12.0.0-powerpc-NETINST-1.iso
On a Power Mac G5 11,2 2.5 quad core (8 GB RAM, GeForce 6600 GPU). I
thought perhaps the issue was related to having a Radeon HD 6750 in the 8x
slot, but I removed it and the error still comes up.
Thanks for your time, and for everything you do for the ports!
