Debian-installer-version: 18 Jan 04 version of sarge-alpha-netinst.iso uname -a: Linux alpha 2.2.20 #2 Wed Mar 20 19:57:28 EST 2002 alpha GNU/Linux Date: 18 Jan 04 23:00 CST Method: SRM console Machine: DEC Personal Workstation 500a Processor: Alpha 21164 500MHZ Memory: 128MB Output of lspci: 00:03.0 Ethernet controller: Digital Equipment Corporation DECchip 21142/43 (rev 30) 00:04.0 IDE interface: CMD Technology Inc PCI0646 (rev 01) 00:07.0 Non-VGA unclassified device: Intel Corp. 82378IB [SIO ISA Bridge] (rev 43) 00:14.0 PCI bridge: Digital Equipment Corporation DECchip 21052 (rev 02) 01:09.0 Multimedia audio controller: C-Media Electronics Inc CM8738 (rev 10) 01:0a.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon RV100 QY [Radeon 7000/VE] Base System Installation Checklist: Initial boot worked: [O] Configure network HW: [ ] Config network: [ ] Detect CD: [E] Load installer modules: [ ] Detect hard drives: [ ] Partition hard drives: [ ] Create file systems: [ ] Mount partitions: [ ] Install base system: [ ] Install boot loader: [ ] Reboot: [ ] [O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it Comments/Problems: Works fine until the ide-detect module is loaded. At that point the system hangs. Starting installation with DEBCONF_DEBUG=5, then switching to console 3 shows the last command as "insmod adma100" This system has never been particularly happy with the 2.4.x kernels in Debian. It boots fine off 2.2 kernels. Manually upgrading the 2.4.24-1-generic seems to work until either of the de4x5 or tulip network drivers are installed and the network is brought up. Tulip will hang the system, de4x5 times out dhclient. John -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
