Comments/Problems:
Initiated install from CD; get "choose language" screen (picked American
English); got choose country screen (picked US); then proceeds to load
modules to search for CD drive; get message "Failed to find and mount a
Debian CD-ROM, Do you want to try again" ; when I choose "Yes", it just
tries again with the same results
I've tried it several times using CD created from sarge-i386-netinst.iso.
I've tried several builds, including the latest dated 20040530; the MD5SUM
checked out. I've even tried sid, which I think also uses the Beta4
installer. Same frustrating result each time. Even though it boots from
the CD and initiates the install, it can't detect and mount the same CD.
NOTE: I've used this same method (CD install from sarge-i386-netinst) on
another PC with excellent results. The other PC is also a P3 of similar
vintage and endowments, but is NOT an IBM NetVista, it's a clone.

We are closing this installation report for one of the following
reasons:
- it was reported with a pre-lenny version of Debian
Installer.
- indications in the installation report give the feeling that
the reported problem waslying in another software, unrelated to
D-I, which we can't easily identify.
- indications in the installation report suggest that it may have been
fixed in a more recent version of a D-I component
- it was successful and we forgot closing it..:-)
- it has no information we consider useful
The D-I team is currently in the process of cleaning out the old spool
of installation reports that haven't bene processed yet.
In case you think that the problem you reported has chances to be
still present, please reiterate your installation test with
a more recent image of D-I, if you're in position of doing this.
You'll find daily builds at
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer. We recommend you choose
the netboot image, in the "daily builds section", then choose to
install "squeeze" when prompted.
If some problems are found, please report them with a new bug sent
against installation-reports.
Many thanks for your understanding and your help improving Debian,
past and present.
