It would get to 85% (Creating Device Nodes) and then fail. As far as i could glean from the logs, the install was failing trying to unmount /target/proc, as /target/sbin/mdadm was running. This occured even with debconf priority set to low; "Installing the Base System" never showed me mdadm's debconf question about starting the md monitor daemon, although it did install mdadm for me. ^_^ I got around this by running debootstrap et. al. by hand, following the directions (loosely) in Appendix C.3. I had to muck around with /target/etc/mtab as it only showed the root partition mounted, not any of the other partitions mounted under /target. The fstab partman created was fine though. ^_^ Also, once I'd done debootstrap, debian-installer refused to let me skip "Installing the Base System" so I also had to do the bootloader by hand. And I also didn't get the installation report template file. >_< Apart from this, and having to pvcreate and vgcreate by hand during partman, the installation seems to have worked well. (I didn't test if manual vgcreate was neccessary or not though.) Also, due to the 2.6.8 transition, I had to select unstable for my mirror, get through to right before "Installing the Base System" and then go back and reselect testing as my distribution. That worked fine. It was suggested on IRC to pass mirror/suite=3Dunstable as a boot parameter, but that overrides debian-install repeatedly, not just preseeds, so with that parameter it wanted to install unstable, not testing. As such, this report might reference changes in unstable d-i that isn't in testing d-i. The mdadm problem showed up trying to install both unstable and testing, which doesn't surprise me since they're the same version. --=20 ----------------------------------------------------------- Paul "TBBle" Hampson, MCSE 7th year CompSci/Asian Studies student, ANU The Boss, Bubblesworth Pty Ltd (ABN: 51 095 284 361) [EMAIL PROTECTED] "No survivors?
