I have a PC running Window XP Pro on which I attempted to install Debian to create a dual boot system.
I downloaded the i386 netinst cd via BitTorrent, used DeepBurner to burn the iso and ran the install. Installation reported as being successful. However, the boot into Debian failed (and then the boot into Debian safemode failed). The last few lines of the boot screen were as follows: code: 0f b6 9c 36 a1 9e 83 cc ba ff 00 00 00 d3 e2 d3 e3 0f b6 84 Segmentation fault <6>Journalled Block device driver loaded pivot_root: No such file or directory /sbin/init: 432: cannot open dev/console: No such file Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init! then there was just a cursor flashing at the bottom of the screen. After forcing the computer to turn off, I was able to boot into windows successfully, but ran into the same errors when re-trying a boot into Debian. Please let me know how this might be corrected. thank you Christina Wellesley College, Class of 2006 http://wilbur.wellesley.edu/~cwillis ~If we actually knew what we were doing, we wouldn't call it research.~ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
