Recently I have tried to build a more recent kernel for boot. I'm using Debian stable distribution. I've set download part of make file to download the actually newest 2.6.36.1 for that time. Also I've realize that a bunch of packages are couldn't download, they are out of date. Toward the compilation I have some problems with zlib-1.2.5 - there is a new configure command what the make file ignoring. I compile it separately, the unattended make accept it and skip. After several tries make usable kernel configuration, I have successfully boot using PXE/tft, configuring packages, but the target system crash after boot all drivers and start the windows installation system - before taht point when normal installer offers partitioning the disk. I thought that it because the wrong text mode sata driver. Some days after this I have to prepare a HP Compaq DC7100 again with SATA HDD on Intel ICH6 chipset. I've put text mode driver at usuall place I386/$OEM/TEXTMODE/ again the very similar crash. I suspect that it is wrong driver version (AHCI ICH6R for Desktop). At last I have tried the manual installation using F6 option - installation goes smoothly, through partitioning, copy system and reboot ... I have changed back the "old" kernel image from 2010 february - the result was same, crash. I have remove the textmode driver at all, catch the moment and manually use F6 option - installation was done. How to use text mode (F6 mode) drivers for unattended? Know it some one, or at least how it suppose to work? Any help would be highly apretiated.
