I'm having trouble installing debian on my p75 generic brand laptop (trying slink and potato). I have gone through setup, installed drivers and base system, but it gives an error:
"There was a problem extracting the Base System from /target/base2_1.tgz" at the end of installation. When I reboot, it seems to freeze on LILO. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Could it be a bad disk in the mix of things? It doesn't seem to report any bad disks, but who knows? Thanks, Brian Morgan [EMAIL PROTECTED]
