Yes I have tried the 2.4 and the 2.6 kernel. I also tried the experimental Images but all show the same result. As soon as it comes to partitioning of the hard disk the installation routine tells that there is no hard disk available. I will probably have to recompile the kernel for my notebook. Is there a good description of how to do this and how do I build a installation image out of this? br Michael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
