Hello,
I tried to install Sarge on an Alpha (Personal Workstation 500a), but the installation process failed.
Details: The installation process hangs on: Loading module 'qlogicisp' for 'Q Logic ISP1020 Fast-wide SCSI' ... This is the 3'th (or 4'th) step (after selecting the language, country and keyboard layout)
I first tried to boot from ISO-images made by jigdo-0.7.1 jigdo='http://cdimage.debian.org/pub/cdimage-testing/cd/jigdo-area/alpha/sarge-alpha-*.jigdo' debianMirror='http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/' I assume this uses the new Debian-Installer (beta 4)?
Next, I used the 'current' "CD image, with Debian base" from http://cdimage.debian.org/pub/cdimage-testing/daily/alpha/current (Date: 19-Jul-2004 22:21)
Both methods failed at the exact same spot. Result: the system hangs. Note: the system has a 'ISP1040 Scsi Controller' (== PCI card with QLogic 1040B Wide Ultra SCSI Adapter)
Remark: RedHat 7.2 for Alpha installs without problems, i.e. the system is fully operational.
