I had to use vga=771 at booting from the installer CD or I have no display. I tried to use the woody netinst CD image and it worked fine (kernel 2.2 though). But once I upgraded the kernel to 2.6.8-686-smp, the system booted completely and presented a login prompt but was not responding at all. Now I wasn't sure is it not responding or is the keyboard not working! Honestly I could not tell as I didn't thing of any way to tell!!! (can provide more details if needed) BTW, I managed to use debian-installer on Toshiba Satellite M30 but with no other OS (only debian, no WinXP: hda1: debian, hda2: swap). --------------------------------------- Received: (at 276780-done) by bugs.debian.org; 23 Oct 2004 11:14:59 +0000 >From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sat Oct 23 04:14:59 2004 Return-path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Received: from (elrond.fjphome.nl) [195.240.184.66] by spohr.debian.org with esmtp (Exim 3.35 1 (Debian)) id 1CLJrO-0003PE-00; Sat, 23 Oct 2004 04:14:59 -0700 Received: from strider.fjphome.nl ([10.19.66.86] ident=fjp) by elrond.fjphome.nl with esmtp (Exim 3.35 #1 (Debian)) id 1CLJqt-0002DD-00; Sat, 23 Oct 2004 13:14:27 +0200 From: Frans Pop <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Ahmad Khayyat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Bug#276780: Installation report Date: Sat, 23 Oct 2004 13:14:32 +0200 User-Agent: KMail/1.6.2 References: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> In-Reply-To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Disposition: inline Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 2.60-bugs.debian.org_2004_03_25 (1.212-2003-09-23-exp) on spohr.debian.org X-Spam-Status: No, hits=-5.0 required=4.0 tests=BAYES_01,HAS_BUG_NUMBER autolearn=no version=2.60-bugs.debian.org_2004_03_25 X-Spam-Level: On Saturday 23 October 2004 06:59, Ahmad Khayyat wrote: > I got it to work.. > I needed to disable "legacy usb support" from the bios!
