CDROM problem

1999-03-11 Thread Jean-Georges Carbonnier
hello,

when I install the latest version of linux (debian) from a CDROM
eveything works good until it begins with dselect. It ask me for the
source and I tell it CDROM, after
it ask me for the block device type and it is imposible to go ahead. I

try some things like this:
/dev/hdb
but it say that the kernel do not support the iso9660 norm. I do not
understand because it make the all instalation from the CDROM. If I
execute a shell I can't mount the CDROM and it tell me the same thing
about the iso norm even if I mount it with the next command:
mount /dev/hdb -t iso9660 /cdrom
Last year with the same computer I could install an older version of
debian. Now I can't install the same version. The only thing that difers

from before is that I have install a CDROM writer.
I have a pentium 166MMX.

Notes:
- I can install the latest version of RED HAT and after I can mount
perfectly the CDROM but I prefer to install the Debian distribution.
- Somebody told me that probably the iso9660 file system is configured
as a module but I couldn't do anything wiyh the insmod command. May be I

don't do it well.

Thanks a lot.

Problema con dselect

1999-02-26 Thread Jean-Georges Carbonnier
Hola,

cuando instalo la ultima version de linux (debian) desde CDROM todo va
bien hasta que llego a la parte de instalacion de los paquetes
software.  El programa dselect me pide la fuente, le digo CDROM, luego
me pide el block device type y es cuando no consigo continuar.  He
probado varias opciones entre otras :
/dev/hdb
pero en este caso me dice que el kernel no soporta la norma iso9660
cuando me ha hecho toda la instalacion previa desde el mismo CDROM.  Si
me pongo en un shell, me pasa que no puedo montar el CDROM porque me
pone el mismo mensaje iso9660 aunque lo monte con el comando siguiente:
mount /dev/hdb -t iso9660 /cdrom
He probado con versiones anteriores de debian y tambien me pasa lo
mismo.
Tengo un pentium 166MMX.
Donde tengo que acudir para tener respuesta a mi problema.

Nota:  He conseguido instalar por ejemplo la ultima distribucion de RED
HAT y luego montar perfectamente el CDROM pero preferiria instalar la
distribucion de Debian.

Gracias.

Un saludo.
