Base system installed from the CD. Machine: assembled in house Processor: Pentium 4 1.6Ghz Memory: 256 Mb Root Device: IDE MAXTOR 6L040J2 (40 Gb) Root Size/partition table: /dev/hda1 on / type ext3 /dev/hda2 on /tmp type ext3 /dev/hda3 on /var type ext3 /dev/main/mirror on /mirror type ext3 (using LVM) Base System Installation Checklist: Initial boot worked: [O] Configure network HW: [O] Config network: [O] Detect CD: [O] Load installer modules: [E] Detect hard drives: [O] Partition hard drives: [O] Create file systems: [O] Mount partitions: [O] Install base system: [O] Install boot loader: [O] Reboot: [O] [O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it Comments/Problems: During the hardware detection phase I received an error from modprobe regarding the inability to load the module ide-disk. However, this did not cause any further problems (at least it seems so). The LVM module did not work very well. I had to create manually a physical volume with pvcreate. Moreover, I tried without success to install with the root partition in LVM. The first part of the installation worked ok, but I was not able to boot on the newly installed system. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
