Hello, New to the list and to Debian as well. After reading an article about the installer I wanted to give it a try and had some problems. I used the daily build netinst from 11/13/03.
One problem I had was that after choosing the task-based package selection method and finding it a little too broad I could not return to choose a different method. Second, I was asked some questions about where to instll LILO and then presented with a screen that allowed me to install GRUB, which was my preference, so why question about LILO? Third, GRUB was setup wrong and I had to edit it in order to boot. Maybe it was because / and /boot were to separate partitions; / was on hda7 and /boot was on hda1, GRUB setup the following "root (hd0,6)", when it needed to be "root (hd0,0)" (it booted after the change). Fourth, after booting into the minimal system ad configured the apt sources I kept getting errors when trying to read from the CD - "ide-scsi: hdb: unsupported commend in request queue (0)". Maybe the burn was bad, or possibly I should try the daily build instead. Thanks. -- Chris Do not reply to the email address. Please use the contact page below for any desired direct replies.
