Hello, I have purchased an Acer Aspire 9300 notebook and am trying to install a Debian distribution.
Sarge does not work directly because it fails to detect the hard drive at hde. Woody will install. I have managed to upgrade the Woody distribution to Sarge. I have not been able to upgrade to a 2.6 kernel. USB flash keys are not detected in any of the configurations. USB serial devices and 1284 devices are detected if they are plugged at bootup. Removal and re-insertion of these devices are detected a few times but detection eventually fails. I am particularly interested in getting the flash keys to work. They are my only means ( other than burning a CD or using a serial line ) to get data on/off the machine. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
