I got my next machine, T5140, and decided to give sparc64 debian port a go. Here is my timeline of experiences. * There is still no netboot installer - this limits my testing since not all machines have a CD/DVD drive and my standard install here is connect the cables, leave the cold room and do everything over the network. The T5140 had a DVD driver fortunately, so I wrote a netinst CD from 2017-03-24 and used that. * The CD boots fine. Top of installer screen hints there is something similar to virtual consoles but here is no hint how to use them on serial console (if possible at all). * Network setup is fine. * Installer does not create separate /boot any more, good! * Installer still tells ext4 is unsupported for silo, that should not be a problem for years now? * Initial debootstrap is fine. * Installer asks for mirror and there is no good information on the wiki. I derived host = deb.debian.org and directory = /debian-ports and it started downloading so seems correct. * Package selection failed.

So it seems the installer does not have relevant PGP key for this repo. Am I using wrong repo? Should I add some PGP key manually? Or is the March installer out of date with respect to current PGP keys after stretch was released? -- Meelis Roos (mroos@linux.ee)
