Debian-installer-version: Daily Build 15-Nov-2003 downloaded from http://gluck.debian.org/cdimage/testing/netinst/i386/daily/ uname -a: <The result of running uname -a on a shell prompt> Date: 16-Nov-2003 22:18:00 -05:00 Method: 100MB CD image Machine: Old Tyan Motherboard Processor: Dual 333MHz Pentium II Memory: 384MB Root Device: SCSI /dev/sda Root Size/partition table: /dev/sda2 /boot 128MB /dev/sda3 / 10GB /dev/sda5 swp 1GB Output of lspci: I don't know dvorak keyboard so it is difficult to do anything...sigh. Base System Installation Checklist: Initial boot worked: [O] Configure network HW: [O] Config network: [O] Detect CD: [O] Load installer modules: [O] Detect hard drives: [O] Partition hard drives: [O] Create file systems: [O] Mount partitions: [O] Install base system: [O] Install boot loader: [O] Reboot: [O] [O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it Comments/Problems: linux bootkbd=qwerty/us did not work - still came up with Dvorak which I do not know!! Burying this as a boot argument makes it more difficult for beginners I have to imagine. After mucking about for an hour or so I figured it out with most of the time spent having difficulty typing. It would be nice if after selecting country there was a second selection for selecting keyboard layout. I am new to debian and I had to hunt around to find the email address to send this report to. Perhaps it should be on the same web page as the report form? xfs and jfs file system modules had errors loading so creating these file systems was not possible.
