Hi all-
I have a new Core 2 Duo Mac Mini, and have been trying to install
Debian Lenny on an external FireWire disk via the i386 netinst CD of
01sept2007.
I waded through the older install documentation around the web that
seems geared to earlier machines, have what I think is a satisfactory
disk partition (ie MBR), but now I'm hung at boot with Grub giving me a
"Hard Disk Error". My reading of this error is that it involves a disk
geometry problem.
I've now checked the geometry prior to installing Grub via netinst and
sfdisk reports:
Kernel's idea (-g): 28615 64 32
Disk geometry (-G): 3648 255 63
After grub's installed, the "geometry" command:
geometry (hd1)
returns 3648 255 63, but I still get my "Hard Disk Error" on boot.
Any thoughts on how to resolve this? I'd be happy to supply more info;
I know I've been brief here...
Thanks! Charles Turner
