Package: installation-reports
Version: Test Candidate 1
flavor:        I'm using images from 
http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/unstable/main/installer-i386/tc1/images/hd-media/2.6/
architecture:  i386 
memory:        512 mg

I tried to install Debian sarge on my hard disk from other partition on hard driver.
In the "Debian GNU/Linux Installation Guide" in chapter 5.1 
(http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/manual/en.i386/ch05s01.html) I can see description in 
"5.1.3. Booting from linux using LILO or GRUB". In the example of /etc/lilo.conf I can 
see this text :

image=/boot/newinstall/vmlinuz
       label=newinstall
       initrd=/boot/newinstall/initrd.gz
       root=/dev/ram
       append="devfs=mount,dall"

But when I tried to run install I see message "RAMDISK: incomplete write (-28 != 
32768)". It is because ram disk size is too small 
for unpack initrd.gz. When I change kernel parameters to
       append="devfs=ramdisk_size=16384,mount,dall"
It runs good, but message "Unable to mount root fs on ram1" was displayed. When I 
changed line into
       root=/dev/ram0
then installer runs good.
Line 'append="devfs=mount,dall,ramdisk_size=16384"' doesn't work !

Please, change Installation Guide.

WBR, Alex.

Changes: 
 debian-installer (20040728) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Steve Langasek
     - Add additional missing ligature characters and harakat
       (diacritics) to needed-characters/ar.
   * Thiemo Seufer
     - Add /dev/null to the image tree if !USERDEVFS.
   * Bastian Blank
     - Remove countrychooser and languagechoose from generic type.
   * Joey Hess
     - Switch release builds back to using udebs from testing.
     - Add firewire-core-modules to the 2.6 kernel_specific nic-modules list, as
       used by i386, amd64, and powerpc, all of which were just changed so that
       nic-modules depend on firewire-modules for 2.6 kernels.
     - Remove ipv6-modules and wireless-tools-udeb from the i386 net-drivers
       floppy to get back under the floppy size limit. Closes: #261625
     - Numerous fixes and updates to the installer manual, including
       improved docs on PXE booting for i386 (Closes: #232252),
       rewritten section of downloading files that avoids bad links and
       outdated image names (Closes: #246890), document ramdisk_size for lilo
       and grub booting better (Closes: #255821).
     - i386 kernel no longer support rarp, disable that in install manual.
       Closes: #250027 ; Same for hppa. Closes: #250026
     - Integrate installation howto into manual. The old text format howto is
       left for now until we update all links and docs to point to the new one.
     - Full package builds build the manual in official build mode.
   * Stephen R. Marenka
     - Kill second set of m68k initrds, genext2fs seems to work.
     - Add /dev/null to userdevfs-dev.txt.
     - Update m68k manual.
   * Colin Watson
     - Document 'install video=ofonly' instead of 'install-safe', which is
       going away (it caused combinatorial explosion in the yaboot prompt on
       full CDs).
     - Add fb-modules and floppy-modules to powerpc cdrom and netboot
       initrds.
   * Bastian Blank
     - Update s390 manual: remove mention of second initrd and devfs.
   * Martin Michlmayr
     - Add cobalt-scripts and colo-udeb to the Cobalt initrd.
   * Sven Luther
     - Switch default powerpc kernel to 2.6.
