Product: drakxtools
Component: drakboot
Summary: drakboot crashes on F1, and keeps asking for
Installation CD 1 (9.1 beta 1)
Version: 9.1-0.18mdk
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
>From Mandrake Control Center, I clicked "Boot Config: dummy description" (you might
>want
to fix those "dummy description" identifiers, I'll enter a separate bug about that).
I then clicked
the Lilo "Configure" button, then clicked "Advanced", and since I didn't know what
"compact"
meant, I hit F1 to get help -- and both drakboot windows disappeared. This is
repeatable.
Then, I decided I wanted to autologin on boot (I had disabled this during
installation). So I
restarted drakboot (clicked on "Boot Config") and clicked the "Launch the graphical
environment when your system starts" checkbox, then clicked OK. It opens the CD-ROM
drive and asks "Please insert the medium named "Installation CD 1 (x86) (cdrom1)" on
device [/dev/hdc]". I insert the Mandrake 9.1 beta 1 CD in the drive and click OK,
and it spits
the CD out and asks for it again.
I am using beta 1 instead of beta 2 because beta 2 does not activate my network card
(separate bug already entered for this). (Beta 1 doesn't activate my sound, and beta
2 does,
but connectivity is more important than sound right now.)
Just to be complete, I put in the beta 2 CD 1, but it rejected that as well.
And when I hit "cancel" on the dialog asking for the CD, all drakboot windows
disappear (I
believe it should have returned me to the main drakboot window so I could change this
and
other options before hitting OK or cancel).
