Package: installation-reports Debian-installer-version: 2004-07-29 from <http://people.debian.org/~smarenka/d-i/images-m68k/daily/atari/> uname -a: impossible to run it Date: 2004-07-29 21:38:12 Method: using Atari boot floppy
Machine: Atari Falcon030 with AfterBurner040 (MC68040), NOVA Mach64 gfx card Processor: MC68040 Memory: 4 MB ST-RAM + 64 MB FastRAM Root Device: IDE ST51080 Root Size/partition table: didn't get that far Output of lspci: impossible to run it 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: First, the bootstra.prg needs to have the Load-to-TTRAM and Allocate-from-TTRAM bits cleared on some machines. The bootstrap will tell the user that it cannot run from FastRAM but doesn't advise to use an utility for clearing the bits in the bootstra.prg header. Best would probably be to provide two bootstraps where the second would have the bits cleared so users could use that without fiddling with the utility. Second, the kernel simply does not boot. It doesn't do anything. Not even switch the graphics mode. It just gets loaded and sits there. I deactivated the ramdisk loading to make sure it's not low memory problem. I believe the kernel should try to boot. But there is no sign it did. Petr -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
