Package: Installer (sarge-i386-netinst.iso)
Version: Downloaded 11/5, 17:34 MST
Note, there are actually two bugs here, but it helps to understand the
second if you read the first. One bug occurs during installation, the
other after installation is complete.
1) The installer was unable to successfully start PCMCIA. I was able to
start this by hand, but it was a bit of a roundabout procedure.
Selecting the menu entry to start PCMCIA did nothing, but if I selected
to load a network driver ("Detect network hardware..."), picked a
network driver, and let it fail to load, then I could go to a virtual
terminal (Ctrl-Alt-F2) and do an "/etc/init.d/pcmcia start" and
everything would work fine (alternatively, going back to "Start PC Card
Services" works after failing to load a network driver, then you can go
back and "Detect network hardware"). I could then load my network
driver and go. Note that, if I went straight to the virtual terminal
and tried to start pcmcia it would fail (with "modprobe: Can't locate
module pcmcia_core"), I had to go through the menu and fail loading the
network card first (I assume something is loaded in the background in
that step that then lets PCMCIA initialization work).
2) After installation, when the system rebooted, PCMCIA support had not
been installed. I had to manually copy the PCMCIA modules from the
installation disk and edit the configuration to start PCMCIA. Also,
after the apt-get steps run by the first login, which include
re-installing the same kernel that was installed during installation (I
assume this is because I downloaded a recent NetInst image), the new
installation failed to include the pcmcia-modules package and I had to
add this in by hand.
