My new Thinkpad A30p has no floppy drive, so one of the admins here burned a CDROM with the rescue disk, Debian 2.2 r4 i3. When I boot from this CD, and hit enter to begin the default installation, the (I believe) usual hardware detection messages appear, but also these:
PCI_IDE: unknown IDE controller on PCI bus 00 device f9, VID=8086, DID=248a PCI_IDE: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later This is followed by lines for ide0, ide1, hda, hdc, ide0 (on irq 14), ide1 (on irq15), hda, hdc, Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.11, and Floppy drive(s): fd0 is 1.44M. Then it reports: Floppy0: no floppy controllers found But that's okay because I disabled them and enabling them has no effect on what happens next. There is no floppy drive on this machine, so I thought it best to leave it disabled in the BIOS. The last thing is the line: Md driver 0.36.6 MAX_MD_DEV=4, MAX_REAL=8 Then it hangs.
