Debian Sid Remix (ppc32/ppc64)

[jorniste]

Hello ! I've been trying to boot this install iso from usb with "boot usb0/disk@1:2,\\yaboot" but I get a decrementer exception. I also tried "boot usb0/disk@1:2,\install\yaboot" and in this case it says "CLAIM failed".
This is on a iBook G4 (1,2GHz) and the CD drive is not working anymore unfortunately so I'm stuck. I can view the usb content with the DIR command, and I've been able to boot the Lubuntu remix installer ISO.
What am I doing wrong ?

Now, I don't really know if this has been found before, but I was getting keyring issues, even following your instructions, and I found what is, if not new, an easier way around.

deb [trusted=yes] http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian-ports/20190707T221412Z/ sid main

Yeah, all i had to do was throw in [trusted=yes] at the start of that, and it stopped complaining, and just worked. I can't imagine it's the most secure solution, but I'll take it. I'm still setting the system up, but it looks to be going better than the last time I tried already,

Thank you for that. Saved so much time trying every different thing to get the Keyrings working which kept failing.

Now that I have Debian sid remix running on my Imac G4 sunflower is there any way of getting Youtube to work? Or do I just follow the same procedure as I did for the Lubuntu-remix directions?
