Package: installation-reports Severity: normal Tags: d-i Dear Maintainer,
* I tied to use Jessie-RC2 intaller to install jessie on a rescue usb hd ? * I put debian-jessie-DI-rc2-amd64-netinst.iso on {cd,sdcard,usbkey} and boot on it, asking to install on sdb (my usb disk). * Install was OK except in the case of sdcard) but at boot time, even asking bios to boot on sdb, it boots on main disk. After trying chroot [sdb] && grub-install update-grub rebooting and so on I noticed that the boot flag was not set on sdb1. Setting it with cfdisk allowed me to boot on the usb disk. * What outcome did you expect instead? I wished I could install jessie on an usb disk and provided bios configured to boot on usb disk, the system should boot on the newly jessie install. -- Package-specific info: Boot method: cd Image version: debian-jessie-DI-rc2-amd64-netinst.iso Date: <Date and time of the install> Machine: EliteBook 6930p from hp Partitions: <df -Tl will do; the raw partition table is preferred> Base System Installation Checklist: [O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it Initial boot: [ ] Detect network card: [ ] Configure network: [ ] Detect CD: [ ] Load installer modules: [ ] Clock/timezone setup: [ ] User/password setup: [ ] Detect hard drives: [ ] Partition hard drives: [ ] Install base system: [ ] Install tasks: [ ] Install boot loader: [ ] Overall install: [ ] Comments/Problems: <Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments and ideas you had during the initial install.> -- Please make sure that the hardware-summary log file, and any other installation logs that you think would be useful are attached to this report.
