I've got an unofficial installation diskset for slink that's setup
specifically for the Adaptec SCSI controllers. You can snarf it from
http://www.debian.org/~adric/aic7xxx/slink/5.1.19/.
Basically you'll need to boot from the diskette, but can then use the
CD as your installation media...

Assuming that you're trying to install slink (2.1, stable branch)
rather than potato (unstable), I've got a set of unofficial
install-disks setup specifically for this situation. You can snarf
them from http://www.debian.org/~adric/aic7xxx/slink/5.1.19/.

I've set a few defaults via the conffile:

email := [EMAIL PROTECTED]
priority := Low
debian := custom.1
kimage := bzImage
That being done, I proceed as follows:

I was just curious about why ash's builtin `echo' command no longer
accepts any options? It causes interesting (though generally harmless)
output in a variety of places, because I use ash as /bin/sh. For
example:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] grep -l echo -n /etc/init.d/* | wc -l
35
I
[EMAIL PROTECTED] dir -d /usr/local
drwxr-xr-x 10 root root 1024 Aug 15 19:23 /usr/local
I set mine up as a seperate filesystem when I first installed. Dunno
if that makes a difference permission-wise or not, tho.

Right. What I wasn't sure of is whether the installer sets the directory
permissions before prompting you to mount additional filesystems, or
afterward.

It's due to your MTA. If you're using exim, look into the
`smtp_accept_queue_per_connection' setting in /etc/exim.conf. Setting
it to `0' will cause all messages to be delivered immediately. I'm not
sure what the equivalent setting is for the other MTAs.

You probably need to install and/or configure isapnptools to handle the
plug 'n pray portion. Most likely you'll need to setup some module
parameters as well.
I can email you the configuration settings I'm using for both of the
above, if you'd like. You'll probably have to adapt them somewhat,
Take a look at /etc/modules, if it includes an entry for ipx it'll be
loaded at bootup.
