Package: installation-reports
In response to your earlier suggestions & questions: - yes, I did try the linux26 option; same result: after the CD boots, there's the choose language screen, the choose keyboard layout screen, then the detect & mount CD loop begins. (this is with the "new" installer on sarge-i386-netinst) - I *have* installed woody from CD1 of the stable distro, so the old installer seems to work with this CD-ROM drive - searching through the output of dmesg after booting into woody shows hdc as LTN4855 ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM DRIVE - Martin wanted me to "check what kind of modules are loaded and maybe load some more"; I'm not sure what you mean--the system doesn't install, so there's no modules.conf or anything... >> I think Martin was speaking about kernel modules. >> To know what modules are loaded, issue the 'lsmod' command. >> >> If you find modules of which the name could be of significant interest >> for you needs, issue the 'modprobe' command like in the following example : How would I issue these commands when the install crashes right in the beginning? Are you talking about trying to make a custom boot CD? Thanks, --Gary -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
