Package: installation-reports
Version: 2.24
Severity: normal
I burnt the CD on 12/13 and tried to boot from it this morning on a
system I just assembled last night. The system would not boot from the
CD. There were no signs that the boot process even began. It did spin
the CD for a while as if it was looking for a bootable device.
I tried booting the same machine from a generic x86 Knoppix CD, and it
booted just fine. After successfully booting the Knoppix CD, I tried
booting from the Debian boot CD again -- still no luck.
By the way, I am reporting from another Debian box, so the
hardware/kernel details added automatically by reportbug don't apply.

The 12/15 install disk worked like a charm. Installing Debian is so much
easier than the last time I did it. You've done great work! It looks
very polished.
