Package: installation-reports INSTALL REPORT
This is actually an install report for two machines with exactly the same configuration, but I'm submitting only one report. Debian-installer-version: debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso, dated 2006-03-14, fetched from http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/etch_di_beta2/amd64/iso-cd/ uname -a: Linux rantanplan 2.6.15-1-amd64-generic #2 Mon Mar 20 10:43:41 UTC 2006 x86_64 GNU/Linux Date: Wed Jun 7 18:33:52 CEST 2006 Method: Netboot CD ROM, from ftp.fr.debian.org without proxy Machine: Rackable server Processor: Dual Core Opteron 265 Memory: 1GB Root Device: SCSI NFORCE-CK804 controller.

I guess this used to be correct, but now it's simply /debian and I had to correct it. As you can see in lspci, this machine has 3 network boards: 1 e100 and 2 bcm5704. During installation, the e100 board was detected as eth0, and the 2 bcms as eth1 and eth2. After reboot, the 2 bcms were detected as eth0 and eth1, the e100 board was detected as eth2, so that the Internet configuration was wrong, and exim took a few tenth of seconds before giving up. Couldn't the install-report.template automatically include the uname -a, date, lspci, lspci -n lines itself? It could also automatically include the debconf choices for debian mirror, proxy, etc... -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
