Hi Musa,
You can install MintPPC. It’s Debian bullseye with the Mint theme.
Download:
MintPPC32-X5000.tar.gz (md5sum:
b31c1c1ca1fcf5d4cdf110c4bce11654)
The password for both '
root' and '
mintppc' is '
mintppc'.
Cheers,
Christian

Hi Christian Thanks for your reply. I already have Mint. It was one of them I managed to transfer from my Hard Disk that broke. I have tried to make an extra copy of Mint and then turn it into a pure debian but I am having problems with the repos. It never came to work. I had before my hard drive broke, a debian 10 that worked. i just can not remember where i got it from. I have tried several installation methods without success. Some freeze when I get to the partitioning program and others stop because they can not find the right modules in / lib / modules. So I thought if there were others who already had a Debian 10 that I could get a copy of their Installation media.
have a nice day

Hi
I managed to make an install from this jessie (
https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/arch ... e-CD-1.iso). After that, the plan was for me to upgrade to Sid Bullseye.
Jessie booted fine but stopped just before graphic login with an error "pv6 mld clamping qrv from 1 to 2" I logged in as root and tried to change Sources.list with deb
http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian- ports unstable main (bullseye) and then gpg --recv-keys 81DCBC61
gpg -a --export 81DCBC61 | sudo apt-key add -
But the last one failed and then I can not go any further.
My network works, but I have no more ideas
If there is anyone who can help me a step further then I will really appreciate it.Thanks
Ps. maybe the repo address is wrong, maybe too old

Hi
I tried different installation media but none of them were easy. I ended up making a copy of my Mint32 installation and put it on my empty debian partion. It seems to work. Here is Debian Sid/Bullseye with Mate
So now I have Ubuntu 16.04 , Fienix, Ubuntu Remix 17 Debian and MInt.
Have a nice day

Hi Musa,
Great news! Did you install the following keyring in Debian?
Code: Select all
# wget http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports/pool/main/d/debian-ports-archive-keyring/debian-ports-archive-keyring_2019.11.05_all.deb
# dpkg -i debian-ports-archive-keyring_2019.11.05_all.deb
Cheers,
Christian

FYI: Bug#995223: libffi: SIGILL on powerpc and ppc64 systems since libffi8

Hi!
Multiple users on powerpc and ppc64 have reported SIGILL crashes after upgrading to libffi8 (3.4.x):
# dmesg
...
[ 16.257543] fail2ban-server[384]: illegal instruction (4) at
3fffb4283970 nip 3fffb4283970 lr 3fffb4282f90 code 1 in
libffi.so.8.1.0[3fffb427b000+c000]
...
Downgrading to libffi7 fixes the problem.
It has been reported that building and using the upstream version does not reproduce this issue. But I have not yet independently verified that. It might be that libffi performs a runtime detection during build which causes the library to be built with a higher baseline on the POWER8 buildds.

Control: severity -1 serious
Hello!
It turns out that m4/ax_gcc_archflag.m4 contains code to detect the
baseline of the host system and sets the GCC architecture accordingly.
Thus, a libffi compiled on a POWER8 machine will not work on a POWER5
machine as the compiler is emitting POWER8 instructions in this case.
Since the m4 script contains such a host enviroment detection for aarch64
as well [1], this bug can potentially affect arm64 which is a release
architecture.
We should therefore pass "--enable-portable-binary" in debian/rules.
