Package: install Version: http://gluck.debian.org/cdimage/testing/sarge_d-i/i386/beta2/sarge-i386-netinst.iso (13 Feb 2004) Severity: normal Followup-For: Bug #228960
I experience exactly the same bug on a Dell Inspiron 8100. I think the original poster indicated that there is no floppy drive attached to his system. I *do* have a floppy drive, but still suffer the same problem. It is impossible to press ALT-F2 to see what's going on. CTRL-ALT-DEL does nothing. Total freeze! If I run expert mode install there is still no possibility to avoid it attempting to load the ide-disk module, even though an ALT-F2 + dmesg reveals that the kernel can already see the hard disk! Using expert I am presented with the chance to add parameters to the ide-disk module, but not to actually skip it. I just downloaded the latest installer image from gluck.debian.org/cdimage/testing/sarge_d-i/i386/current/sarge-i386-netinst.iso (dated 13 Feb 2004) and tried that. And that works fine! I post this information in the hope it may googlers.
