Hello everybody, I am currently trying to install a debian (Sarge) on a mipsel device. It is an Asus WL-HDD :
http://usa.asus.com/products4.aspx?l1=12&l2=44&l3=0&model=460&modelmenu=1 I installed a minimal distribution in the flash and accessed it through SSH. Then, I tried to install a debian using the "debian-31r2-mipsel-netinst" iso. Here is what I did : - I copied the content of the initrd of the debian boot cd on hard disk => /mnt/debian - I copied the content of the ISO on the hard disk => /mnt/debian/cdrom - chroot /mnt/debian - /usr/bin/debconf-loadtemplate d-i /var/lib/dpkg/info/*.templates - echo 2 > /var/lib/lowmem - anna-install lowmem - export DEBIAN_FRONTEND=newt - export MENU=/usr/bin/main-menu - /lib/debian-installer/menu But, the installer allways want to detect the cdrom drive and don't know how to bypass the detection. Maybe someone has advice ? Or maybe, is it possible to install a debian using only dpkg (a bit like gentoo in fact) ? Please CC me, I'm not subscribed. Thanks -- Nicolas MASSÉ
