For access to the installer in the future, you might want to choose File -> Save Settings... as something called 'Rescue' or so. Then if you double click on Rescue, Penguin will start with those settings. In the Penguin, under File -> Settings..., first switch to the Kernel tab and un-check the ramdisk option. Then in the Options tab, type in the root= clause. If you want to use these settings from now on, select File -> Save Settings as Default. I'll make this a little clearer in the manual. -- *------v--------- Installing Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 --------v------* | <http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/installmanual> | | debian-imac: <http://debian-imac.sourceforge.net> | | Chris Tillman [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | To Have, Give All to All (ACIM) | *----------------------------------------------------------------*
