This is an update for the sake of completeness with this thread so that it is helpful in future references.
We finally got Debian AMD64 installed in our two machines. Two changes were required: 1. Upgrade the Tyan BIOS to the latest version. This solved the problem of the installer failing to initialize large partitions in our SATA drives. 2. Use the latest sid-amd64-netinst.iso image dated 19-Feb-2005. This image solves the problem of the d-i failing to boot up from the hard drive after a successful install from CD. Thanks again to those who helped with suggestions. -- Pedro -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
