Package: install Version: N/A; reported 2004-03-20 Severity: normal
Downloaded Debian Installer Beta 3 from http://www.dk.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/, the 100MB image for i386. Checked the md5sum, it matches. I have downloaded the .iso twice and written it to two blank CD, one R and the other RW, both fail to boot on this one machine. I booted and run Knoppix 3.2 succesfully. I dowloaded Knoppix 3.3 and wrote it on the same cd-writer I used for the installer cd, this also boots and works. So, this computer can boot all other bootable cd I had, and I can write OK cds on my CD-burner. Thus I conclude that sarge-i386-netinst.iso somehow is defective, this BIOS can not boot it. I get "DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER" Info on the host where the CD won't boot: Motherboard: ASUS A7V ASUS A7V ACPI BIOS revision 1004C The following collected with Knoppix 3.3. # fdisk -l Levy /dev/hdd: 10.2 Gt, 10246053888 tavua 16 p��t�, 63 sektoria/ura, 19853 sylinteri� Yksik�t = 1008 * 512 = 516096 -tavuiset sylinterit Laite Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hdd1 1 19853 10005880+ c W95 FAT32 (LBA) Levy /dev/hda: 30.7 Gt, 30738677760 tavua 255 p��t�, 63 sektoria/ura, 3737 sylinteri� Yksik�t = 16065 * 512 = 8225280 -tavuiset sylinterit Laite Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 1 6 48163+ 83 Linux /dev/hda2 7 37 249007+ 82 Linux-sivutus /dev/hda3 38 1861 14651280 7 HPFS/NTFS /dev/hda4 * 1862 3737 15068970 83 Linux # lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc.
