It would be interesting to see /proc/devices in the installer before you reboot. > Why is the installer using Lilo (which I thought had gone out with > the dinosaurs)? Grub can't be used if /boot is on LVM or it isn't an ext2 (or ext3) partition. The contents of /proc/mounts would help. > Isn't it time to make USB-stick install the default method and > providing ready-made USB-stick images to the users? Current Syslinux has a so-called hybrid mode, which creates images which can be used both as an ISO or as an HD image. It isn't yet available in Lenny, but may be a way forward. -- Cheers, Feri. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
