Your installation report mentioned that you're using a machine with SATA disks. Since the last beta of debian-installer was released, a large number of changes related to SATA have been made. In particular, we now ship a 2.4.26 kernel with (some) SATA support. We're currently preparing a new test release of debian-installer (release candidate 1), and we'd appreciate it if you could try our daily image and tell us whether this works. This will give us some time to make important changes if so requires before rc1 is released. You can find current images at http://gluck.debian.org/cdimage/testing/sarge_d-i/ We'd appreciate it if you could test this image and tell us if the issues you mentioned in your bug report have been dealt with, and in particular whether your SATA disks are recognized and work. You can either boot normally (by pressing enter or typing "linux") and will get a 2.4.26 kernel with SATA, or you can type "linux26" and get a 2.6 kernel; both should work, and we'd appreciate feedback about both of them. Thanks Did beta3 recognize this SATA disk with Windows? I guess not. Can you check if the new daily image can see it? > Install boot loader: [E] > Reboot: [ ] > [O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it > > Comments/Problems:well the problems comes because i already have a grub > installation on the hd , and when i select to install the grub of the live cd > the installer simply blocks , also i would like to know the grub parameter to > try to boot the debian from the gentoo installed grub(who is in a 100mbs > partition /dev/hda2) debian-installer should recognized other operating systems and make proper menu entries for them when you install GRUB with debian-installer. You can now also specify normal device names, such as /dev/hda2 -- Martin Michlmayr [EMAIL PROTECTED]
