Package: installation-reports Debian-installer-version: 20040524 - daily build from http://cdimage.debian.org/pub/cdimage-testing/daily/sparc/20040524/ uname -a: system not successfully installed Date: 25.05.2004 Method: CD install from netinst image as above
Machine: SunBlade100 Processor: Memory: 512M Root Device: IDE Root Size/partition table: Output of lspci: Base System Installation Checklist: Initial boot worked: [E] Configure network HW: [ ] Config network: [ ] Detect CD: [ ] 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: Chose en-gb language, install started detecting hardware, then came up with 'Error while running modprobe -v ide-cd'. Produced 'No common CD-ROM drive was detected' screen (odd since it booted off the drive!). No CD driver floppies seem to be available for sparc, so could not progress further. However, on attempting to continue further (by selecting 'no' in answer to queries about location of CDROM modules), it transpired that the keyboard map was wrong - only the up arrow key functioned. Hitting Ctrl+Alt sent the cursor to the bottom of the list. Also tried boot: linux devfs=mount rw - same effect. Note that the CDROM drive in this machine is in fact a DVD drive. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
