Hi, Debian-Installer folks! Here's an IRC log from #debian-boot on irc.debian.org. Sorry, I'm a big fan of kill/yank.
<elmig> maybe you can give a short explanation an pray to one of the experts +it's paying attention <Sebboh> Sure. The partconf-mkfstab thingy fails because it tries to read something +about my floppy, but I don't have one. (FDC disabled in bios.) So, +/target/etc/fstab isn't created properly, and then other scripts like the +lilo installer can't find /, so that sucks. Solution: I enabled the FDC in +bios. But, the mkfstab script-thingy should be modified, see? <elmig> it should not fail... <Sebboh> in short, for want of a floppy, my /etc/fstab still says # UNCONFIGURED +FSTAB FOR BASE SYSTEM ... I traced the problem to mkfstab. I guess. I'm no +expert. <elmig> you need to discuss that with an expert <Sebboh> Well, I fixed it, now, debian is installed properly. I just need to report +it, and then go about my business. =) How do I do that? <elmig> bus.debian.org (ed: sic) <elmig> if you know the name of the package and version you can make it by +e-mail And, check this out! ~ # cat /var/log/debian-installer/package-versions | grep fstab partconf-mkfstab 1.00 Anyway, hopefully this information helps you. I really like this new debian-installer, (in the past, I've only used stable...) If there's anything else I can do to help, just let me know. I can re-do the installation and grab some logs, if you tell me what to grab...
