If it really is a kernel issue, that's pretty easy to fix (for us). If it's a dbootstrap bug, that's where we'll have difficulty, with no developers on that architecture. That's why I'm curious to see if you can mke2fs and mount from console 2; if so, it's probably dbootstrap and hard, if not it's probably kernel and easy. -- *------v--------- Installing Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 --------v------* | <http://www.debian.org/releases/woody/installmanual> | | debian-imac (potato): <http://debian-imac.sourceforge.net> | | Chris Tillman [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | May the Source be with you | *----------------------------------------------------------------* -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
