Finally got a chance to try this idea. Got the netinst.iso.bz2 out of current and burned a CD of it, tossed it in and did "boot cdrom"... briefly saw SILO flash by then I got the "Welcome to Debian GNU/Linux 3.0!" screen, which made me happy. Prematurely, alas, since either hitting enter or telling it "linux" or "rescue" does this: Loading initial ramdisk.... Remapping the kernel... done. ...and nothing. Several minutes pass of nothing and I give up. Any other thoughts? :/ I had really planned everything around using Debian on this V880 as the primary machine for the department (hopefully quite soon) and boy, is it not looking promising so far... -R
