Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: base-installer
Text-mode-installer does not correctly detect BIOS-order for IDE-controllers.
It creates entries in fstab and boot/menu.lst for hde, instead of hda.
Afer booting live-cd and adapting these two files, the error was corrected and
the system booted fine.
This applies to (at least): edgy beta iso, edubuntu 606
Hardware:
Mainboard: Fujitsu Siemens Celsius 620
BIOS ver: 2.00.03 rev: 2.30.1161
IDE 0+1: onboard Intel 440BX
IDE 2+3: Sil 0680
IDE0.master(hda): 80gb
IDE0.slave(hdb): none
IDE1.master(hdc): dvd-rom
IDE1.slave(hdd): cd-rw
hde - hdh: none
BIOS settings:
1st boot device: ATAPI CDROM
2nd boot device: 1st IDE-HDD
3rd boot device: 2nd IDE-HDD
4th boot device: floppy
try other boot devices: yes
** Affects: base-installer (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
