I really appreciate d-i's team effort. The following glitch is marginal, but I list them anyway. 1. dmesg does not display, but start-up screen says: can't open /etc/mtab: No such file or directory 2. The rest are hardware detection problems: a. I disabled LPT port in BIOS setup, but hardware detection detect it anyhow wrongly and complain: Detecting hardware: insmod: /lib/modules/2.4.22-1-686/kernel/drivers/parport/parport_pc.o: init_module: Device or resource busy lp: driver loaded but no devices found ... insmod parport_lowlevel failed b. I think my PC does not have i810_rng, but d-i detects it somehow. Although it detect ide-scsi, but fail to install properly. Detected modules are listed as: aic7xxx e1000 i810_rng ide-scsi c. As I repeat, I believe no i810, but it says: Loading i810_rng module. i810_rng RNG not detected /lib/.../drivers/char/i810_rng.o: init_module: No such device d. My PC's IDE device list is: hda: EIDE HDD Maxtor 160GB hdb: None hdc: DVD RAM HD-DT-ST GSA-4040B hdd: CD-R/RW Yamaha CRW-F1E hde: SATA HDD Seagate 160GB hdf: None but creates too many /cdrom* mont point. Now it still create /cdrom, /cdrom0, and /cdrom1. One too many. I really appreciate d-i team effort, and I wanted to mail this report using sarge, but I cannot. My PC uses nVidia GeForce Ti 4200 8X, and I cannot figure it out to let X function properly. It simpy freezes at X's start up.
