Hi, I've just been installing Debian 3.0 (not sure exactly which release) and
I have experienced some problems ... these occurred after the first
installation restart. It may be my system though neither Windows nor SuSE Linux have any real
problems with it ... being a computer freak my system is arguably a little more
complex than the average user. The following is what it is: CPU: P4/1.7 Motherboard: ASUS P4E with
Promise Raid Lite & Sound Memory: 512Kb/PC133 Video: ABit Siluro (nVidia
GeForce2 64Mb AGP) Storage: Array 1: 10Gb, single disk (/dev/ataraid/dp0) Array 2: 60Gb, two disks (/dev/ataraid/dp1) LS120 ZIP 100 Liteon DVD Conventioanl
CD Network: Compaq/Intel
EPro100 Other: Hauppage PCI TV Card. During pre-reboot install it correctly identified the DVD drive as the
source (/dev/cdrom) but after reboot (where it asks
whether you want to update or whatever by FTP/HTTP/CDROM etc.) it doesn’t
accept this (/dev/cdrom) as the CDROM. I would have
tried putting it in the other CD but that’s not a DVD and my source is. I've
tried a number of other sources (guesses) i.e. /dev/cdrom1, .../cdroms, .../ dvd, .../media, .../dvdrom and the same but using /mnt
in place of /dev with no luck. Any ideas? James "Undead Hedgehog" Rocks Editor: Not Decided Yet |
