Package: debian-installer Severity: important This is debian 3.1 r0a on i386
If before the installation there is already partition with the label "/" in the system, then debian will fail to boot after the installation with 50% probability. It depends whetehr the old "/" is found (and mounted) before the new "/". Solutions : - quick : Abort installation if an existing "/" partition is detected - cool : Install using another label if "/" is already in use. (just appeanding an extra slash, until a uniq name is found, seems to be a simple and working solution) PS: I used the 2.6 kernel when I discovered this. ---------------------------------------------------------------- VOLJADSL.
