Package: boot-floppies
Version: N/A; reported 2002-02-24
Severity: important
Using a recent (3-5 days old) cvs build, I can perform a network install for
new-powermac without too much of a problem.
However, it is impossible to install from either a pre-mounted or instmnt
partition. An error comes up as soon as the installation folder has been
selected, stating: Cannot read /floppy/image.txt: Invalid argument.
When the OK button is pressed on this dialog, another with the same message
replaces it, at least 20 times. The only way out is to pull the plug, I think.
I checked the /floppy mount in vc 2, it looked ordinary. mount shows
/dev/loop0 is mounted on /floppy, type ext2 (ro).
ls -l /floppy gives
(abbreviated, and the permissions look appropriate):
4467 config.gz
1123 debian.txt
1527 install.sh
1261262 linux.gz
12288 lost+found
881 readme.txt
126757 sys_map.gz
7 type.txt
When I tried cat /floppy/debian.txt or cat /floppy/type.txt, I got
cat: read: input/output error
so it could list the files but couldn't read them. I was getting these
type errors in vc3 also.
