Hi again, I am hoping that debian-s390 is the correct place to ask about installation problems with this system, and that the list is not only for kernel developers. If I am in the wrong place, please let me know.
Now, regarding my installation problems... I went back and did the network definitions all over, and the net *did* come up. So scratch "problem 2". :-) Using putty I logged in as installer. Using the install menus, i went to the 'download installer components' stage, but again, it only allows http and ftp, no sign of NFS. I tried dropping into a shell to set up the NFS mount: BusyBox v1.00-pre10 (Debian 20040623-1) Built-in shell (ash) Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands. ~ # mkdir cdrom ~ # mount -t nfs 10.1.20.20:/cdrom /cdrom mount: Mounting 10.1.20.20:/cdrom on /cdrom failed: No such device ~ # I know this does work, because from another linux on the same subnet (which successfully pinged both the debian installer and the nfs host) I *was* able to perform the mount: linux02:~ # mount -t nfs 10.1.20.20:/cdrom temp linux02:~ # ls temp .
