In regards to bug #239464

I ran into a similar situation: Debain-installer businesscard .iso daily
snapshot from July 14 2004 or thereabouts: It repeatedly installed a -k7
kernel on a dual processor Intel Pentium II system, leading to a reboot
soon after GRUB passed things on. I had the same problem on an Intel P4
system I tried the beta2(?) installer on some time ago. In that case the
beta3 installer fixed the problem, but I think for the wrong reasons:

I'm pretty sure that in the old case, as well as today it failed because
I chose "stable" as the distro to track. Selecting "testing" makes it
install a good -686 kernel. I guess that's how I fixed it by mistake
last time. I'll change the sources.conf to track "sarge" instead of
"testing", and then when things become stable I'll be all set.

I suppose when Sarge is released this may not be an issue as stable
becomes what's on the CD?? or not.


(It also gave me a 2.4-k7 kernel when I ran linux26  -> stable)



regards,
Hamish
